Photography, facility rental and call for exhibitions

At all of the public attractions of Luomus, travel photos for personal use can be taken with handheld cameras and phones. Please mention the location whenever publishing your photos.

In the outdoor gardens, you can organise small-scale photography sessions (photographer and up to four people to be photographed) of non-travel photos, such as wedding photos and portraits, without any additional fees and advance booking. However, other visitors who are in the area and any ongoing gardening must be taken into consideration when arranging the session. You can be on the lawns and paths, but you cannot touch the plants.
