Mäntyharjun asemanseutu (lit. Mäntyharju station area) is a village and administrative center of the Mäntyharju municipality in South Savo, Finland. At the end of 2019, the village had 3,629 inhabitants.[1] It is located along the Savonia railway, and as its name suggests, the village has developed in the immediate vicinity of the Mäntyharju railway station.[2] Lake Pyhävesi is located near the village.[3]

In addition to the railway station, many of the municipality's most important services are located in the village, such as a high school and a comprehensive school, a library, a health center, a pharmacy, a sports field, a couple of grocery stores (S-market and K-Supermarket) and a few restaurants. There is also a rural hotel called Villa-Aurora in the village.[4][as of?]
