Psychologicum, Neoclassical university building in Siltavuori, Finland
The Psychologicum features symmetrical facades, large windows, and stone columns that extend across three floors of the educational structure at Siltavuorenpenger 1 A.
Built in 1910 under architect Gustaf Nyström's direction, the structure initially served as a physics department before transitioning to house psychological studies in 2001.
The building represents Finnish educational architecture from the early 20th century, combining academic functionality with neoclassical design elements in the university district.
Students and faculty access numerous lecture halls, including room 132 with 150 seats and room K134 accommodating 50 people for various educational activities.
The structure stands directly on bedrock, a characteristic that proved beneficial for physics experiments during its original function as a physics department.
