The Cathedral of Helsinki, Finland. Helsingin tuomiokirkko or Helsinki Cathedral was built by Carl Engel Lugvig under Russian administration in 1850. Renewed by Juha Leiviskä. (in Finnish Helsingin tuomiokirkko, domkyrka Helsingfors in Swedish) is an Evangelical Lutheran cathedral located in the center of Helsinki, Finland. The church was built as a tribute to the Grand Duke, Nicholas I, Tsar of Russia and until the independence of Finland in 1917, St. Nicholas Church was called. It is a hallmark of the landscape of the city of Helsinki, the church stands with its tall green dome surrounded by four smaller domes, it is a neoclassical style and was built between 1830 and 1852. It was designed by Carl Engel, to complete the urban complex of the Senate Square that Engel had diagrammed and which was surrounded by several buildings of his own. The building has a plant in the form of a Greek cross (ie a central hall surrounded by four arms of equal length) and symmetrical in all four directions, each with its colonnade and pediment.
