Sahanlahti Resort – Old Sawmill community
Sahanlahti is a historical sawmill community. Sahanlahti’s first sawmill was established in 1740’s and it
was among the first ones of its kind in Saimaa area. The saw activity in Sahanlahti ceased in 1920’s and
the last sawmill was pulled down in 1936. Nowadays the log flume in the rapids reminds our guests of
the areas sawmill history.
The sawmill employed six to seven workers and it operated in two shifts. The length of a typical
working day was ten hours and the work was done machine-paced. The sawing of one log took four
hours, leaving the workers plenty of time to smoke their pipes and discuss the events of the day.
The resort’s contemporary restaurant/reception building was originally built as a steward’s residence.
In the past, Sahanlahti’s museum building offered a home for two workers and their families. To respect
Sahanlahti’s historical heritage, the resorts buildings have been named after old sawmill workers
