Independence Spruce, Memorial tree in Kaivopuisto Park, Finland
The Independence Spruce rises from the ground in Kaivopuisto Park, marked by a black granite slab containing inscriptions on both sides of the stone.
Consul General Rodolf Ray presented this symbolic spruce to the Finnish Parliament in 1917, marking the declaration of Finland's independence from Russia.
Small spruce trees grown from the seeds of this memorial tree were distributed across Finland during the 50th anniversary celebration in 1967.
Located near a restaurant entrance in Kaivopuisto Park, visitors can reach this memorial tree through walking paths at any time of day.
The black granite memorial stone features text expressing the connection between the spruce tree and Finnish determination through references to nature.
