The best known and most imposing church in the Finnish capital. From the top of its steps, one dominates the square and the port.

Built according to the plans of Carl Ludvig Engel, it is the head of the Senate Square. Magnificent church, it offers a pleasant view of the city at the top of the stairs. Today of Lutheran denomination, it was first consecrated to Saint Nicholas, patron saint of merchants and navigators. Like those in St. Isaac's Church in St. Petersburg, its four cardinal pediments are decorated with the twelve apostles cast in zinc. Its name, Tuomiokirkko "Great Church" dates back to 1959.

Très belle église offrant une belles perspective de toute la ville. Il est très agréable de s'asseoir sur les escaliers et de profiter du beau temps et des animations dans la place du Sénat. L'église est simple dedans, plus petite que l'on aurait pu croire de l'extérieur.p

Très belle cathédrale qu'on peut voir pratiquement de toute la ville. Imposante, en haut de ses marches, elle est plutôt sobre à l'intérieur. Un incontournable d'Helsinki !
