4.5St Henry's Ecumenical Art Chappel(16 reviews) - Great architectural achievement Spent < 1 hour Architectural Buildings • Religious Sites
Chapel is short distance from Turku and well worth a visit. The outside is not memorable.Sort of looks like an upside down partially open clam shell with a metal roof. The interior is striking. It is entirely constructed of pine wood. Truly spectacular pine walls that follow the contour of the exterior. Chapel has won several architectural awards.See more..
