Finnish House of Nobility, Civic building in Kruununhaka, Finland.
The Finnish House of Nobility features neo-Gothic architecture with a grand assembly hall measuring 464 square meters and reaching 10 meters in height.
Following Finland's separation from Sweden in 1809, the building became the first parliamentary structure in Finland, hosting the Diet of 1863.
The building contains a research library and archives that document Finnish noble families through genealogical records and heraldic collections.
The assembly hall serves as a venue for corporate events, concerts, and conferences, while maintaining office spaces for administrative functions.
The structure belongs collectively to Finnish noble families and continues to function as their hereditary association's headquarters since 1862.
