Morjens! Tampere! Located in Finnish Lakeland, Tampere is wedged between Lake Näsijärvi and Lake Pyhäjärvi, the earliest known permanent settlements around Tampere Rapid, Tammerkoski, were established in the 7th century. In 1775 by Gustav III of Sweden, Tampere was granted full town rights, founded on the lands of the Tammerkoski manor, while its inhabitants, besides being farmers, began to rely on trading and craftmanship earning a living.
In the 19th century, Tampere grew into an important market town, the industrialisation of Tampere was greatly influenced by the FINLAYSON textile factory, founded by the Scottish industrialist James Finlayson in 1820. At the turn of the 1990s, Tampere's industry was heavily focused on bilateral trade with the Soviet Union until its collapse in 1991, the industrial town went bankruptcy. In the early 2000, a huge amount of vacant industrial space in the city centre, gradually put to art galleries, innovation labs or even more alluring, the brewery restaurants. The historical interior design of PLEVNA blended with red bricks and exposed wooden beams are among of them.
