Tampere Orthodox Church, Eastern Orthodox church in Kyttälä district, Tampere, Finland

The Tampere Orthodox Church exhibits the Byzantine Revival style with its characteristic onion-shaped cupolas and brick construction at Tuomiokirkonkatu 27.

Russian military architect T.U. Yazukov designed this church, which was completed in 1899 and received its bells as a gift from Emperor Nicholas II.

The church interior contains detailed iconography and maintains regular services in both Finnish and Russian languages for the local Orthodox community.

Located at coordinates 61.495248, 23.771977, the church remains an active religious center within the Helsinki Diocese of the Eastern Orthodox Church.

During Finland's transition to independence, the church changed its dedication from Saint Alexander Nevsky to Saint Nicholas to reflect peace rather than military heritage.
