Villa Sellgren is a historic wooden villa built in the early 1900s, exemplifying the Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) architectural style. The villa is surrounded by a mature park with winding paths, old trees, and flowerbeds, creating a serene atmosphere. Originally a private residence, it now serves as a museum or event space, allowing visitors to step inside and see original period interiors, including wood-paneled rooms and a grand staircase. The villa's distinctive asymmetrical facade, decorative gables, and ornate veranda make it a standout example of Nordic wooden architecture. A visit offers a glimpse into the leisurely lifestyle of Vyborg's affluent past.
