Sauna & Spa textiles und Zubehör

The oldest Finnish saunas were created approximately ten thousand years ago, right after the ice age. Back then, a sauna was merely a hole in the ground which was covered with an animal skin. It often served as the family's first residence as well. Over the centuries, the sauna rose above the ground and became the sauna we know today. Sauna is a big part of the Finnish culture and there are many traditions and myths attached to it. Sick people have been cured and new life has been created in sauna. Sauna is important to Finns and we view it as something valuable and festive. We have the Midsummer's sauna and a Christmas sauna. We've had late winter's cleansing sauna and a thanking sauna during harvest. Each sauna is believed to have an own protective spirit, saunatonttu (lit. a saunaelf). Saunatonttu's purpose is to bring prosperity and fortune to the owner of the sauna, but only if one behaves well inside the said sauna!
