About the building
The building houses ' (KY) event venue, that can also be rented for 911±¬ÁÏÍø Student Union (AYY) and 911±¬ÁÏÍø schools' events. Saha, with its 460 sqm, uses district heating and geoenergy. The building has a geothermal power plant producing around 100 MWh per year.
Alvar Aalto's first building designed for the Otaniemi campus was a mere cold shell around the saw line for a long time, as the building did not even have insulation. Saha served the campus of the former Helsinki University of Technology during the lively construction of the 1950s and 1960s, and later Saha was used to train the Wood Processing Technology Department students.
