Messukylä Old Church

Tampere Cathedral was built between 1902 and 1907 in the national romantic style. The frescoes in the church were painted by the painters Hugo Simberg and Magnus Enckell, both of whom are considered masters of Finnish symbolism.

The old church of Tampere was built in 1824-25 in the neoclassical style. A bell tower designed by Carl Ludvig Engel was built in 1828-1829, on which two bells were placed. Modified over time, the original appearance of the church was restored during a renovation by Nils Erik Wickberg in 1953-54. Today the old church is the original church of the Swedish congregation in Tampere.

Lempäälä Church, or St. Birgita Church, is a medieval greystone church built around 1502-1505. Many changes have been made to the church, the most important of which was in 1835-1838, when the church was changed from a single nave to a cruciform church due to the growing population of the parish. The church was then renovated to a greater extent than the interior in 1895 and in the 1920s. The last major renovation was completed in 1984.
