Temppeliaukio Church, Helsinki

This Lutheran church is a contemporary masterpiece. It was in a very inner city location which was a surprise. The acoustics were superb, we were lucky enough to have an operatic singer (from another group) burst into song, which was very moving

Such a unique and beautiful church. Hard to believe it’s built into a rock! There’s a small entry fee, but it’s also included in the Helsinki Card. Unfortunately I couldn’t stay long and soak up the ambience as there are no bathrooms, and I was directed to the shopping centre which is a 10 minute walk away. So from that perspective, be aware it doesn’t rate very high on accessibility.

Unique place where we were first time! The Rock church! That's incredibly! Great Finnish experience this weekend. We gave enjoyed by modern style and nice musical atmosphere. Wonderful small concert were waiting for us! At special corner of the sanctuary we found the book keepers with great devotions on every world language! We found our example on Ukraine one! 🇺🇦 P:S: Would be nice to have WC for many visitors)))) God bless you, Finland, abundantly! Jesus is the Lord!

Truly spectacular work of art. It was a joy to approach it and enjoy the light music while appreciating every curve and line. Absolutely stunning and inspirational. The tourist groups are a non issue, it was very quiet when I went and that was in middle of tourist season. #1 site in Helsinki!

One of its kind church carved out of a rock. Continuous Piano adds to the ambience of this place. There is an entry fee of 3 Euros. We spent about 40 minutes there. Place is very beautiful and different from the usual churches.
