NEW 2025: Welcome to a historical adventure to the past! JT-Line operates a total of ten archipelago cruises from Helsinki’s Market Square to the Archipelago Museum Pentala during July and August 2025.
The oldest building of the preserved fishing estate at the Archipelago Museum Pentala contains logs that have been dated to as early as 1791. Steamboat traffic between Helsinki and Espoo began in the 1860s. Steamboats were a popular mode of transportation to the archipelago, and summer residents would often travel daily between Helsinki and Espoo. During the Golden Age of steamships, the gentry would socialize or play cards in the ship’s salons while at sea. A cruise today offers glimpses of that atmosphere from over a hundred years ago. The Archipelago Museum Pentala also opens windows into the past, showcasing the many facets of island life—from everyday chores to villa life and leisure activities.
