About Asemantausta
What are the main landmarks in Asemantausta?
The Lahti railway station is the landmark on Asemantausta's doorstep. Beyond it the centre holds the rest: the Vesijärvi lakeshore, the downtown museums, and the Salpausselkä slopes the city climbs. Kärpänen and Sopenkorpi alongside share the plain western-Lahti grain.
What is the history of Asemantausta?
The railway made this corner. When Lahti was chartered in 1905 around its station, the tracks fixed the western edge of the town, and the land behind the platforms filled with the housing and yards that became Asemantausta within the Päijät-Häme regional capital.
Where is Asemantausta?
The name says it. Asemantausta sits behind the Lahti railway station on the western side of the city, and Kärpänen lies just beyond it, with Hennala and Sopenkorpi filling out the same western quarter where the streets reach the foot of the Salpausselkä esker.
