Såka
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Såka (Sokoja in Finnish) is a settlement in the municipality of Kokkola (Karleby in Swedish), in the province of Western Finland. Såka has a population of 900 and covers an area 40 km². Såka consists of five different areas: Övre-Såka, Såka, Wentjärvi, Koivisto, and Rasmus. (Some people also claim Åivo as part of Såka.)
The oldest stone barn in Finland (1748) is located in the Rasmus area, as is the architecturally remarkable brick house built in 1779.
The financial center of Såka is located between the Såka and Wentjärvi areas, which is called Kork/Solbacka or as 90% of the Finnish population more often call it "Såka city". This is the center for logistics in the whole of Såka, and also the Såka camping area is located here.
