Mäntylä Hospital
The hospital buildings have been abandoned since 2010 when they were examined to be too worse condition to be totally renovated in other words the renovation wouldn’t have been economically viable. This statement meant that over 100 years old heritage of people treatment at the site would come to end.
The oldest buildings at the site were built in the end of 17th century and the newest and the largest one in early 60s. The yellow wooden building served as retirement house and it was the first of its kind in Lappeenranta Finland.
Nowadays the condition of the buildings is very poor. The buildings have faced a lot of vandalism and the most of the windows have been shattered. It seems that the destiny of the buildings is that they will eventually be teared down.
