Tourula is a district of Jyväskylä, Finland, and a part of the Kantakaupunki ward.[1] It is located near downtown Jyväskylä and separated from it by the river Tourujoki. The district also includes the Kangas suburb.[1]
Tourula was a residential area for the working class, made of wooden single-family houses which were built in the 1910s and 1920s.[2][3] The area was merged into Jyväskylä in 1941, and after that the wooden houses started to decay and they were torn down during the 1970s and 1980s.[2] After that, the appearance of Tourula changed radically.
