Tampere Workers' Hall

Tampere Workers' Hall is a protected social building in Hämeenpuisto that combines multiple functions under one roof. Its interior includes conference rooms, a restaurant, and areas for educational events that serve various gatherings and meetings.

The building was designed in 1900 by architect Heikki Tiitola and later expanded in 1912 and 1930 to meet growing community needs. These growth phases show how the hall steadily increased in importance for Tampere.

The name reflects its roots in the labor movement, and today meeting spaces and public events continue to define how the hall operates. Visitors can see how it still serves as a gathering place for different organizations and community activities.

The building is located at Hämeenpuisto 28 and is open for visitors interested in viewing conference areas and event spaces. The interior is equipped with stairs and elevators to access different levels and rooms.

In December 1905, Lenin and Stalin met for the first time in this building during a conference of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party. This historic meeting made the hall a notable place in the history of the Russian labor movement.
