Aleksanteri School, Primary school in Kaakinmaa, Tampere, Finland.

The Aleksanteri School building features functional design elements with high windows that allow natural light into classrooms and corridors throughout the day.

The school opened its doors in 1904 as part of the educational expansion in Tampere during Finland's rapid industrialization period of the early 20th century.

Finnish architect Wivi Lönn designed this educational facility during an era when female professionals in architecture faced significant barriers in the field.

Located in the Hämeenpuisto area, the school maintains its original purpose as an educational institution while preserving its architectural characteristics through protective regulations.

The building represents one of the first major educational facilities in Finland designed by a female architect who later received the honorary title of professor.
