What Helsinki Cathedral looked like in its prime.
A white neoclassical block on a raised granite platform, dominated by a large green central dome set on a tall drum with arched windows and a clock, and four smaller green domes at the corners. The main facades each have a six-column Corinthian portico and triangular pediment; larger-than-life statues of the Twelve Apostles stand along the roofline. Broad, worn granite steps lead from the open Senate Square up to the portico and entrance.
