The world's only Moomin Museum

The Moominhouse is the Moomin family’s home, a cozy haven and launchpad for adventures, and a place where everyone’s welcome, just as they are. In Tove Jansson’s stories, it stands for belonging, equality, and a warm roof over your head (even for the strangest guests).
A brand-new Moomin 80 anniversary exhibition opening at the Moomin Museum on June 7, 2025, tells the story of how the Moomin family finds their blue house. Step inside the lovingly recreated parlour and soak up the magical atmosphere! You’ll also get to see original drawings by Tove Jansson of the house’s many curious visitors and on-goings. And don’t miss the delightful Moominhouse tableau built by Tove, Tuulikki Pietilä, and their friends – a reminder of the importance of play.
Welcome to the Moominhouse!

On the lower level of the museum, you’ll find our centrepiece exhibit: a five-storey, over two-metre-tall tableaux of the Moomin House. The enchantingly detailed model was crafted by Tuulikki Pietilä, Dr Pentti Eistola, and Tove Jansson, taking them three years to build. It was unveiled at the Bratislava Biennial of Illustration in 1979, after which it toured the Nordic countries. Today it is a permanent exhibit that can be seen only at the Moomin Museum.
