Jumalansynnyttäjän suojeluksen kirkko, Eastern Orthodox chapel in Vanha Munkkiniemi, Helsinki, Finland.

The chapel features traditional Eastern Orthodox architectural elements integrated with Finnish design principles, incorporating a modest dome and intricate details.

Architect Ilmari Ahonen designed this religious structure in 1951, during Finland's post-war reconstruction period when numerous Orthodox churches required new locations.

The chapel belongs to the Orthodox Parish of Helsinki, which conducts services in multiple languages including Finnish, Church Slavonic, English, Greek, and Romanian.

The building operates under town planning protection measures, ensuring its preservation while maintaining regular religious services for the Orthodox community.

This structure represents the adaptation of Orthodox architectural traditions to post-war Finnish regulations, which influenced the construction of religious buildings.
