Finnish Banking Museum

The museum was built in the former post office building, whose foundation stone was laid in 1903. The building is located in close proximity to the Helsinki Cathedral. The facade of the single-story building has been preserved in its original form. However, the entire interior has been renovated, and the internal space has acquired a precise symmetrical layout reflecting its current use. The roof skylights were removed to prevent the penetration of ultraviolet radiation and inappropriate lighting of the exhibited items. The roof window has been preserved only at the main entrance, where it creates an interesting view of the cathedral.
The interior spaces are designed in dark wood, which appears neutral and does not distract from the exhibited items. The dark wood is combined with glass walls, creating visually striking reflections.
