Toripolliisi, Bronze statue in Market Square, Oulu, Finland.

The Toripolliisi statue stands 2.2 meters tall near the Market Hall, depicting a market square police officer in a traditional uniform with hands behind his back.

In 1987, sculptor Kaarlo Mikkonen created this bronze monument to commemorate the police officers who maintained order at the Market Square from 1934 to 1979.

This bronze figure represents the connection between law enforcement and the local community, serving as a reminder of Oulu's commitment to public safety.

The statue stands at coordinates 65°0'47"N and 25°27'52"E, making it an accessible meeting point for visitors exploring the central market area.

Small plaster replicas of the statue are available for purchase at the Oulu police department, while the Market Hall post-box features a special postmark of the figure.
