Pitkäkoski Sawmill is the third oldest sawmill site in Finland, originally founded in the 1720s and permanently established in 1738. Over the years, it changed owners several times, becoming an important local employer during the 1940s under Väinö Vuorela. Although sawmill operations ended in the mid-20th century, a mill continued to operate on the site until the 2000s, and the power plant still produces electricity today. The area has historical value and sits near a river and dam, making it a scenic stop for cyclists. For safety reasons, visitors must not enter the "Tammen Bridge" above the dam.
