History:

Already four months after the founding of Hämeenlinnan Hiihtoseura the Ahvenisto ski jump was inaugurated in March 1925. There jumps on more than 20 meters were possible. On Epiphany 1926 even 2'000 spectators came for a competition.
Fist plans for the construction of a 70 meter ski jump came up in late 1950's, and were realized by 1968. The normal hill in Hämeenlinna hasn't been used since 1994 and is, as the photos show, not in a very good constitution anymore. The outrun of the wooden ski jump directly leads into the Ahvenisto race track.
