The main building built in 1812. Home of the merchant family Krepelin 1849-1899. Today the yard and the buildings function as Hotel Krepelin<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

History<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Main building erected 1812. The original builder is unknown. The style is influenced by the european neo-gothic style. By 1841 the house was owned by the merchant Anders Z. Holmstr\u00f6m<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carl Wilhelm Kr\u00e4pelin<\/a>, in turn, was born in Stockholm, Sweden in 1823 and arrived to Kristiinankaupunki through Kokkola in 1846. He started off as the accountant of Simon Anders Wendelin and after a while established his own merchant house in the Holmstr\u00f6m mansion. After Holmstr\u00f6m\u2019s death in 1849 Kr\u00e4pelin acquired the house. He married Maria Charlotta Estlander, born in Lapv\u00e4\u00e4rtti in 1828. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the Krepelins the yard has had many owners, but since the 1990’s the yard has become known as the Krepelin Yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
