"Completed in 1826, the Lutheran Old Church was only ever meant to be temporary. As Helsinki experienced rapid population growth in the early 19th-century, the city’s existing church couldn’t cope with the growing congregation. Plans were drawn up for a new, larger building, but significant delays in construction meant a quick solution was necessary." - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team
A small church with a super organ. Very comfortable, nice, and a good place. I visited for a concert. Many people were so grateful, thank you very much for the French Embassy and the French Institute for the event organization.

It's in a nice park and secure for a picnic during summer time, enough space for friends get together.

Cosy old wooden church in the absolute center. Probably open daytime. Probably weakly lunch organ concert. Feel free to join lutheran state church weddings, baptisms and services in Finnish and Swedish.

Nice old church. A white wooden structure. Seems to have been pulled out of Gone with the wind

Beautiful church and it looks small from the outside but it is quite big from the inside. The church also has a massive organ
