Önningeby

In the south of Önningeby, Lemström's canal separates the municipalities of Jomala and Lemland.

The Önningeby artists colony was centred around the summer house bought by the Finnish landscape painter Victor Westerholm in 1884, and called by him Tomtebo.

Housing of visiting artists provided additional activity and income for the local inhabitants.

[4] The artists' colony dispersed at the beginning of the World War I, when Westerholm abandoned Tomtebo.

In 1960 a monument of Victor Westerholm was designed by Wäinö Aaltonen in a park near the canal.
