Pyhäjärvi on video: tourism, mine memories and dance history

Three distinct perspectives: the city's 2026 tourism film, a former concentrator worker's 2022 farewell and an archive promo for a dance festival that ended in 2023.

The city published this visitor film with English subtitles in February 2026. It is a municipal introduction and the most recent starting point in this selection for getting to know Pyhäjärvi. Pair it with the city's current information on beaches, trails, services, accommodation and events when planning a visit: a promotional film cannot replace opening times or access conditions for individual sites.

The creator says he worked at the Pyhäsalmi Mine concentrator and presents this as a short farewell from that workplace, thanking his team and Pyhäsalmi Mine. It was published in September 2022, shortly after underground production ended. The clip offers a personal view of the work community behind a major chapter in Pyhäjärvi's recent history; it is not official visitor information and does not show that mining or public tours continue.

This city-produced promotional clip preserves an earlier campaign for Täydenkuun Tanssit, a contemporary dance festival that shaped Pyhäjärvi's cultural life. The final festival took place in 2023 and the event was discontinued afterward, so the video is an archive of that period rather than an invitation to a new edition. Check the municipal calendar for the cultural programme during your visit.
