Finnish House of Nobility, Civic building in Kruununhaka, Finland.
The Finnish House of Nobility is a civic building in Kruununhaka with neo-Gothic architecture and a large assembly hall used for events. The hall hosts concerts, conferences, and corporate gatherings alongside administrative office spaces.
After Finland's separation from Sweden in 1809, this building became the first parliamentary structure in the country, hosting the Diet of 1863. It has served as headquarters for the hereditary association of Finnish noble families since 1862.
The building houses a research library documenting Finnish noble families through genealogical records and heraldic collections that visitors can explore.
The building is available for various types of events and accommodates larger gatherings in its main hall. Access is generally restricted to scheduled functions, so it is best to check ahead about visiting opportunities or event schedules.
The building is owned collectively by Finnish noble families rather than operated by a single institution. This shared ownership structure makes it a rare example of property still managed jointly by aristocratic lineages today.
