The House of Culture

The House of Culture features a red brick exterior with curved walls and houses multiple performance spaces for concerts and cultural events.

Architect Alvar Aalto designed this modernist structure in 1958 as his first public building project in Helsinki, marking a shift in urban architecture.

The venue regularly presents diverse performances ranging from classical concerts to contemporary rock shows, stand-up comedy, and theatrical productions.

Located at Sturenkatu 4, the building includes a lunch restaurant called Sture4 and provides wheelchair access throughout its facilities.

The building combines modernist design principles with traditional Finnish materials, featuring an asymmetrical fan-shaped auditorium with superior acoustics.
