Main building of the University of Jyväskylä, Educational building in Seminaarinmäki Campus, Jyväskylä, Finland.

The Main Building features red brick walls, large windows, and granite elements, following the architectural principles common to Finnish institutional structures.

The structure emerged from Alvar Aalto's 1950s design for the Jyväskylä College of Education, replacing older Teacher Seminary buildings from the 1880s.

The Main Building contains two lecture halls supporting over 100 students each, reflecting Finnish dedication to accessible higher education.

Visitors can access the building from Monday to Friday between 7:30 AM and 6:30 PM, with entry through the main entrance on Seminaarinkatu 15.

The assembly hall C1 contains a grand piano and can accommodate 370 people, making it suitable for both academic and musical performances.
