The University Almanac

Yliopiston almanakka (Finnish-language University Almanac) and Universitetsalmanackan (Swedish-language University Almanac) offer a host of information in a single publication. They include every Finnish official holiday, special day, flag day and name day. The almanacs provide information about planetary movements, the special days of different religions, the most popular first names, as well as market days, for example.

The first Finnish version of the University of Helsinki’s traditional almanac, Yliopiston almanakka, was published in 1705. Until 1996, it was simply called Almanakka. The almanac has been published in Swedish since 1608, and today goes under the name Universitetsalmanackan.

Yliopiston almanakka and Universitetsalmanackan are available in a compact A6 size and an easy-to-read A4 size. The almanacs are published by Ajasto Paperproducts Oy. Dealers can contact the publisher directly.
