Old Student House, Neoclassical clubhouse in Kluuvi, Finland

The Old Student House features a two-floor structure with a banquet hall and music hall, accommodating more than 1000 visitors in central Helsinki.

The citizens of Helsinki funded the construction of this student house in 1870, as recorded in the Latin inscription 'Spei suae patria dedit' on its facade.

Three choirs and the Helsinki University Symphony Orchestra hold regular rehearsals in the Music Hall, maintaining Finnish musical traditions.

Located 290 meters from Helsinki Central Railway Station, the venue offers four meeting rooms and includes an accessible entrance from the Kaivopiha side.

Students occupied the building during its centennial celebration in 1968, marking a significant moment in Finnish student activism.
