The Kruunuvuori Villas were perhaps one of the most famous urbex locations in Finland. The area was built in the early 20th century and was a popular getaway place for the Germans in Finland. After Wold War II the Soviet Union confiscated the area. It was later sold to a property developer.
The developer wanted to build apartments, but was denied permission several times. The villas deteriorated, were abandoned and burned down or collapsed one by one. The last one was destroyed in 2021.
