Helsinki City Hall, Administrative building in Kruununhaka, Finland.
The Helsinki City Hall exhibits a bluish grey facade with neoclassical elements, standing prominently at the edge of Market Square in central Helsinki.
Built in 1833 as Hotel Seurahuone under Russian rule, the structure transformed into Helsinki City Hall following extensive renovations in the 1970s.
The Council Chamber within the building holds regular meetings of the Helsinki City Council, shaping municipal policies and decisions every other Wednesday.
