The museum contains over a thousand different toys created in the late 19th - early 20th centuries. Most of the collection was collected by Evi Soderlund, traveling through the open spaces of Finland for 35 years. She handed her collection over to the Porvoo city authorities, who soon established a toy museum. Each toy displayed in the museum once had a small owner, the history of which is told by the guides. They will also talk about the dolls themselves, about different ways of creating toys and many other interesting and useful things. Today, more than 35 thousand exhibits are presented here.
