The Sibelius Museum is the only museum totally devoted to music in Finland. The museum building, designed by Woldemar Baeckman, is one of the most original Finnish creations of the 1960s. A selection taken from the approx. 2 000 instruments of traditional and art musics from all around the globe is exhibited. One room is naturally reserved for Sibelius´s life and work.

Apart from it’s collection on Jean Sibelius, the archive of the Sibelius Museum owns a large collection of different material connected to music, e.g. sheet music, photos and sound recordings.
