The University of Jyväskylä's campus areas form a layered and unique cultural environment from the 19th century to the present day.
The Teachers' Seminary buildings were completed on the Seminaarinmäki ridge landscape in the early 1880s. The college building complex designed by architect Alvar Aalto was constructed between 1954 and 1959, and in the 1970s the area was complemented by buildings designed by architect Arto Sipinen.
