Église de Ulrika Eleonora, Lutheran church building at Senate Square, Helsinki, Finland.
The wooden structure featured a cross-shaped floor plan with equal-length sides and contained a high tower painted in earth-red tones.
Master builder Anders Hackenberg constructed the church between 1724 and 1727, during a period when Finland remained under Swedish rule.
The church received its name from Queen Ulrika Eleonora of Sweden, with City Mayor Abraham Wetter sponsoring the interior decorative elements.
Visitors can observe the church's original location through black stones marking its floor plan in the pavement of Senate Square.
The bell sounds from this former church continue to ring in Helsinki Cathedral, preserving an auditory connection to the past.
