Gottlund pursued the creation on an autonomous Finnish territory from the Finn Forests on both sides of the Swedish-Norwegian border, with great economic and political independence. Gottlund is commonly attributed with saving the folklore of the Forest Finns. Among ideas promoted by Gottlund was the view that all languages are interconnected by the same roots.
The cottage of Gottlund was built in the early 19th century. According to traditional knowledge Gottlund met some people of Juva in this cottage and collected their songs, poems etc. when he was in Juva during the years 1815-1816. The cottage isn't in its original shape anymore and at least its porch is dismantled. In front of the cottage there is the memorial stone of the rune singers of Juva.
Nowadays there are a beach, a rest home and a kindergarten close to the cottage. Pay attention that you are walking in / close to a conservation area when you are looking for this cache!
