Ancient survival skills bring us back to the past and connect ancient people with the people of today. At Kierikki, modern people learn to discover ancient survival skills within themselves and create a more sustainable connection to nature. Stone Age community and spiritual culture intertwine with the present in a way that strengthens our connection to prehistory and offers new perspectives on sustainable future.
Ancient survival skills invite everyone to come together to build the future by drawing on the wisdom of the past.
This is how we implement Cultural Climate Change
At Kierikki, modern people can experience the past physically and spiritually.
The Stone Age burial complex, to be implemented in 2026, offers participants a unique journey into ancient rituals, highlighting beliefs, stories and the cycle of nature. The Ancient Market at the end of summer will expand into an experiential multi-day event where the past and the present intertwine.
All of Kierikki’s programme content for 2025 and 2026 is part of the official program of Oulu’s Capital of Culture year. See more information about the Oulu2026 European Capital of Culture.
