For decades, Kytö was used by the Finnish Defence Forces as a private training ground, and admittance to it was severely restricted.

Three parties have claimed it as their property: the Defence Forces, the City of Espoo, and a private family who claims that their ancestors owned the island already in the 19th century.
In 2005 the verdict of the highest court in Finland was that the Island is privately owned by the family.
