The White Church

This is the Helsinki Cathedral. It is an Evangelical Lutheran Church in the heart of Helsinki. It was finished in 1852.

It forms one side of the Senate Square. Tall steps lead from the square up to the church building. It is quite a climb.

The area around the church is not busy, but it is within walking distance of downtown and many shops. The day that we were there, an outdoor market was open a short distance away by the harbour.
