Kurikka

Kurikka is best known within Finland for the furniture-making tradition centred on its Jurva district. The municipality lies beside the Kyrönjoki River in South Ostrobothnia, where open fields and low-lying river plains give the inland landscape a distinctly different character from Finland’s lake districts. Jurva, incorporated into Kurikka in 2009, developed a national reputation for furniture production and remains associated with design, woodworking and skilled craft. Kurikka belongs to the flat Ostrobothnian plain, where towns and farming communities are spread along waterways rather than around a single urban core.
