Kyösti Iitti’s Angel Park
Kyösti Iitti has dug a pond in the wilderness of Kaitoonmäki in Pöytyä. There is a park of metal sculptures on its shores, where you can find angels, animals, human figures and interpretations of historical events. A peculiarity of the 1960s architecture, a Futuro house, stands at the edge of the forest. Only a small number of Futuro houses were built: it looks like a UFO on its legs. Visitors can climb the ladder to get inside the ‘spaceship’.
