The Tuusulanjärvi [ ˈtuːsulɑnjærvi ] ( Swedish. Tusby träsk ) is a lake in the Uusimaa region in southern Finland .
It lies on the territory of the municipalities of Tuusula and Järvenpää . The lake has an area of 6.0 km². Its shape is elongated, the distance between the two ends of the lake is about 7 km. At the southern end of Tuusulanjärvi is the eponymous church village Tuusula, at the northern end the town of Järvenpää. At the beginning of the 20th century, an artists 'colony was formed at Tuusulanjärvi: Jean Sibelius ' home Ainola and the houses of the writer Juhani Aho , the painters Pekka Halonen and Eero Järnefelt and the composer Joonas Kokkonen are on the shores of the lake . The later Nobel Prize winner Frans Eemil Sillanpää decided to become a writer here.
Even before that, the Finnish national poet Aleksis Kivi spent his last months on the edge of the lake in a small hut that his brother Albert Stenvall had and where he died on the last day of 1872.
