Creating a unique space for the mind and body while respecting the environment

An iconic, yet respectful sport campus environment embedded in nature

Pargas “Havis Sport & Leisure”, located in Norrby, Pargas. The sports and leisure center will be developed into a new attraction in Pargas. It will be a sports center of international standard with a unique sports facility for both residents and visitors, sustainably built complex in a unique location.

Pargas Havis has first-class conditions for club activities, active leisure, and accommodation. The vision of the “Pargas Havis” sport center is to conceive an iconic, yet respectful sport campus environment embedded in nature on the Norrby peninsula north east from Pargas. The concept of the “Havis” bath house and the ice-skating rink is to elaborate on the various states of water and the phenomenon of the ice that forms on the ocean when seawater freezes.
