There are a few parking spaces on the Lääkärinkatu side, but most of the parking spaces will be out of use due to roadworks on Lääkärinkatu at least until the end of 2026. We recommend parking in the streetside spaces outside the hospital area or arriving by public transport. Please note that if you arrive by public transport, the nearest stop is about a 500-metre walk to the hospital.
