It is bordered on the north by Liisankallio, on the northeast by Kaleva, on the east by Kalevanrinne, on the south by Hatanpää, on the west by Ratina and on the northwest by Tulli.
On the west side of the cemetery was the State General Hospital, which had moved there from the edge of Nalkala Square in 1910.
To the north of the hospital was the Kalevanharju orphanage, founded in 1925, which included a nursery and a milk distribution station for infants.
[3] In the area south and southwest of Kalevanharju, between the Tehdaskatu street and the Viinikanoja ditch, there were several small industrial plants: the Tampere's brewery, founded in 1922, the Tampere box factory, which started operations in 1923, and the Tuotannon leipomo bakery, designed by Frans Jousi, was built in 1927.
The plantation has been in operation since spring 2014 and currently includes about 60 culture sacks and boxes, which are cultivated and cared for by a team of about 15 people.
