Lohja

The lake-dotted, forested terrain around Lohja has shaped both the town’s compact urban form and its local economy. Lake Lohjanjärvi lies immediately beside the centre, while fertile soils and a comparatively mild southern Finnish climate have long supported orchards and market gardening; Lohja is particularly associated with apple growing. The medieval Church of St Lawrence, known for its extensive wall paintings, is among the town’s most important cultural landmarks. Lohja also stands within easy reach of the Helsinki region while retaining a distinctly lakeside setting in Uusimaa.
