Kaakinmaa
Kaakinmaa is a district in Tampere, Finland, located in the city center. It includes the area south of Pyynikki Church Park (Pyynikin kirkkopuisto) between the Hämeenpuisto park and the Mariankatu street.[1] To the south, the area extends to Eteläpuisto on the shores of Lake Pyhäjärvi. The neighboring parts of the city are Nalkala in the east, Amuri in the north and Pyynikki and Pyynikinrinne in the west.[2] Sometimes Kaakinmaa is incorrectly considered to belong to Pyynikki and Pyynikinrinne; however, Kaakinmaa has its own district.
The most important street running through the area is Satamakatu, which rises west of the slope of

A brewery has previously operated in Kaakinmaa. In 1897, a brewery was established on the corner of Tiilitehtaankatu and Papinkatu, which later became Oy Pyynikki.[12] In 1903, another brewery operating in Tampere, Oy Iso Oluttehdas, and Oy Pyynikki merged to form Näsijärven Osake-Oluttehdas,[12] which in 1920 took the name Oy Pyynikki Ab. Until 1992, Pyynikin Brewery produced the Amiraali beer brand, which is popular with the local population and is still available in Japan with a label with the image of Admiral Tōgō Heihachirō (1848–1934) from the Tupgō flagship Mikasa's museum store in Yokosuka.[13][14][15] The brewing business in Tampere was discontinued soon after Pyynikki Oy came under Sinebrychoff. The same fate in the hands of Sinebrychoff was later experienced by the Pori Brewery. In 2012, the Pyynikki craft brewery was established in Tampere to continue the tradition of the Pyynikki brewery, although for the time being, due to the lack of suitable premises, it operates in Rahola.
The name of Kaakinmaa derives from the kaakinpuu tree, also known as
On the western side of Kaakinmaa, along Mariankatu, in 1936–1973, there was a Christmas Sign Home[21] owned by the Finnish Tuberculosis Resistance Association (Filha ry),[22] which cared for the newborn children of mothers with tuberculosis. After the operation of the nursing home ended, the building was demolished and there is now an apartment building on its site.
