Our Story

Nestled in the heart of the historic Konepaja district in Vallila, the Train Factory is a bold reimagining of Helsinki’s industrial soul. Where the clatter of heavy machinery and the hiss of steam once defined the landscape, a new kind of energy now pulses through these red-brick halls.
We have taken a site once dedicated to building Finland’s locomotive engines and transformed it into a sprawling, 24/7 ecosystem of culture, activity, and flavour.

A legacy RESTORED

The Konepaja area has been the industrial heartbeat of Helsinki since the early 20th century. As the former manufacturing and repair site for the Finnish State Railways, these buildings were designed for scale, grit, and endurance.
Today, we honour that heritage by preserving the raw, beautiful backdrop of the original factory architecture. We haven't just renovated a building; we’ve unlocked a landmark, turning a closed industrial site into an open invitation for the city to gather.

MOVEMENT, PEOPLE & ENERGY

At the heart of Train Factory lies movement—and staying in motion. It is part of our history.
Whether it is the energy from an intense workout, the stirring experience of a movie, or the connection fostered by a shared meal, we have created a place where people and ideas meet.
A unique combination and diverse services under one historic roof.
