Almannakkeet

Almannakkeet, also known as almanakkeet or almanak, are traditional Finnish calendars that have been published annually since 1856. They are a significant part of Finnish cultural heritage and are known for their detailed information about the Finnish language, culture, and history. Each almanak contains a variety of sections, including weather forecasts, agricultural advice, horoscopes, and literary and cultural content. The almanakkeet are typically published in Finnish, but editions in Swedish and English are also available. They are often illustrated with traditional Finnish artwork and designs, reflecting the country's rich cultural heritage. The almanakkeet have been published by the Finnish Literature Society since 1919, and they continue to be a popular and enduring part of Finnish culture.
