Savonia Coat of Arms
Savonia has been inhabited since the end of the Ice Age. Savonia's remaining Neolithic cave paintings remind us of its long history.
Today, there are at least 400,000 inhabitants in the province. Over the course of history, the Savonians developed a distinctive dialect of Finnish that distinguishes them from Finns native to other provinces. Savonia’s natural landscapes are part of Finland's pure and beautiful Lake Country.
