Helsinki Cathedral

The church features a Greek Cross design with 4 equal sides. The main dome is adjoined by 4 smaller domes, architectural elements that really make the building stand out in the city. Completed between 1830 and 1852, it has been one of the most popular landmarks in Helsinki ever since and remains a popular tourist attraction in Finland today.

Helsinki Cathedral is the main Evangelical Lutheran cathedral in Helsinki, the capital city of Finland. The Neoclassical building is located at Senate Square, the most popular square in the heart of the city. Because it was constructed in an elevated position, the building has dominated the city’s skyline ever since it was completed in the mid-19th century.
