Already in the end of 1800s, Aulankovuori Hill was a popular destination with groups for picnic trips. A small wooden pavilion was built on top of the hill to serve as a scenic lookout place. Nowadays, Aulangonvuori Hill is dominated by a 33-metres-tall granite tower built during 1906 - 07. This landmark-like tower resembles a castle tower, and it is designed by architect Waldemar Aspelin.
