Aleksanteri Church, Gothic Revival church in Pyynikin kirkkopuisto, Finland
The red brick church features a long structure with cross-arms at the polygonal choir end and large circular windows along its facade.
The church, named after Emperor Alexander II of Russia, opened its doors to the community during Advent in 1881 after years of local demands.
Aleksanteri Church maintains regular St Thomas Mass services every three weeks, following the traditions of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland.
The church opens Monday through Friday from noon until 6 PM and includes facilities for visitors with mobility requirements.
The building contains a 56-voice electro-pneumatic pipe organ constructed by Kangasala's organ factory in 1939 after a significant fire restoration.
