A vaulted cellar venue for meetings and celebrations
The Puistoniemi area, home to Kanava Resort, has a long history. Since the early 1900s, the area has been home to a significant ironwork, a guesthouse, a local post office and several residential buildings.
At Kanava Resort, we wanted to honour Puistoniemi’s rich heritage by preserving some of the area’s original buildings. One of them is Kanavan kellari.
Carefully restored, the old vaulted cellar combines the atmosphere of the past with modern comforts. Brought back to life through an extensive renovation, Kanavan kellari now offers a unique setting for meetings and celebrations surrounded by the picture-perfect nature of the Lake Saimaa region.

A different way to gather
The history of Kanavan kellari can be seen and felt in its thick stone walls, vaulted arches and carefully preserved details that tell stories from the past decades.
Modern technology makes the venue a functional setting for meetings, workshops, shared dinners and other meaningful gatherings.
