    Mäntsälä Town Centre

    Mäntsälä is located about 60 km northeast of Helsinki near the regional border of Päijänne Tavastia. The Mäntsälänjoki River flows through the church village, which joins the Mustijoki River further south, which runs all the way to the Gulf of Finland. Historically, the area has become famous for giving its name to the "Mäntsälä rebellion" (Mäntsälän kapina in Finnish), a failed coup attempt by the far-right Lapua Movement to overthrow the Finnish government in 1932.
