This imposing granite construction of the architect Eliel Saarinen (1910-1914) marks a turning point in Finnish architecture. With a national romantic style, the lines are little more refined. The building of the station mixes Art nouveau and functionalism. Its strong facade, the jewel of Art Nouveau, is mitigated by the subtlety of coronations and the integration of the. Four busts of massive and solemn men, lamp carriers, frame the main entrance. The 48 m tower with a green-green roof has a clock 3 m in diameter. Inside the Station, the Pullman fresco on the second floor is signed by Eero Järnfelt, one of the great Finnish artists. To fool the boredom of expectations, the café on the ground floor has a small casino! The station provides access to the largest metro station and an underground shopping outlet.

Avec ses accents art nouveau finlandais tardif, cette gare terminale en plein centre d'Helsinki est un point de passage incontournable pour tous les déplacements. Depuis 1982, une station de métro se trouve sous la gare.

A journey over time! This station gives the impression that it has not been transformed for a century. It's beautiful, it's clean, it's Finnish.

Joli bâtiment dans son style. Plein de trajets pratiques pour se déplacer dans le sus de la Finlande en train et en bus, et aussi vers l'aéroport.
