Veljekset Keskinen

Veljekset Keskinen Oy (Keskinen Brothers) is a department store in Tuuri, Alavus, Finland. In addition to the General Store and the Food Store, the shopping center includes Hotel OnnenTähti, the Onnela caravan park, the Village Store Gas Station, restaurant services and in the summer, a yard sale. Outside entrepreneurs operate on Kauppakatu. Over the years, a shopping village of dozens of companies has grown around the Village Store.

It receives over 6 million customers per year,[1] and is the largest department store in Finland.[citation needed] The store is a tourist attraction as well as a regular department store.

There is a large horse shoe at the parking area, as the name of the village ("Tuuri") means "luck" in Finnish; it stands at number three in Reuters' list of world's ugliest buildings and monuments.[2]
