If the sauna was built in the 70-90s and is in an apartment of a house, probably. I have seen that exact stove probably 15 times in Finland (in the same color, if any color even more times). It’s kinda the worst sauna possible but at least it is a sauna. The stove is small so the löyly is short.

There are 0.62 saunas per capita in Finland.
Most of them are in people’s homes or cottages, if you live in the countryside you usually have a sauna -or even two saunas sometimes.
In cities, it’s a bit different. Quite a good number of people have their own saunas in their appartements, especially if they are bigger ones. Smaller, studios etc. especially in high rises do not have their own, but of course there’s few in the building you can reserve.

In the city in apartment buildings? Mostly not, at least not a personal one. In rural areas with detached housing, similiar to the my summer car house/cabin? Mostly yes.

I have a sauna stove that looks exactly like that!
Most houses have a sauna, apartments often have a shared sauna, where you would typically have your own slot once a week, and maybe also a shared slot for women and one for men, which is open for everybody who lives in the apartments.

I’ve never seen a house or apartment without one, but I know they exist. Not having sauna is a huge negative to a lot of people, when looking for a new home.
