    Rajaportin Sauna is the oldest public sauna in Finland that is still in use and was started in 1906 and has since offered memorable sauna bathing for the citizens of Tampere, as well as visitors from other cities and countries.

    The oldest sauna, as well as the oldest log building, in the USA is in the Delaware River Valley. Both buildings were constructed by Finns who arrived in the 1600's with the colony of New Sweden. The grandson (John Morton) of one of these immigrants cast the deciding vote making the Declartion of Independence official.
