Ikaalinen became an independent commune in 1641. The associated market town was founded in 1858. The market town and the commune were united in 1972 and Ikaalinen became a borough in 1977, a town with a rural atmosphere.The Ikaalinen of today has an area of 842 km2 (of which 91 km2 is water) and the population is 8000.Ikaalinen is an old tourist attraction in Finland. Its spa tradition dates back to the last century and folk music, especially accor-dion music is one of its traditions. Its beautiful landscape has always fascinated visitors.During the last decades Ikaalinen developed into a versatile service centre with good business, educational and recreational facilities. Today about 55 % of the population earns its living from the service sector and 15 % from agriculture, which has always provided an important source of income.
