Heart of a Living Village
The Rentukka building was build already in 1972 and originally it has served as the Student village’s maintenance building, with the Student Union’s accommodation and financial offices, telephone exchange and a 300-seat restaurant.
Over the decades, Rentukka has served as a significant meeting place for both the tenants of the Student village and other residents of Jyväskylä. In 2018, Rentukka was renovated into a community building that promotes the well-being of the area’s tenants.
