His interest in art extended beyond the traditional forms of visual art, painting and sculpture and thus, he also collected antique furniture, silver objects as well as articles of ethnographic value. The building that houses the Hiekka Art Museum was the first building in Tampere specifically built for museum use. Nowadays it is the oldest private art museum in Finland. The museum opened in 1931. The collection of the home museum Hiekka founded comprises mainly Finnish art from the 1850s the present as well as foreign art from 1630-1910. In addition to the museum’s permanent display, there is usually at least one temporary exhibition running.
