Everything about The Turku Cathedral totally explained
The
Turku Cathedral is a
Evangelical Lutheran cathedral in
Turku,
Finland. It is the seat of The
Archdiocese of Turku. The cathedral is located in the centre of the city, by the
river Aura. It is the national place of worship and one of the most notable historical buildings in Finland.
The church was originally built out of wood in the late
13th century, and was
dedicated as the main cathedral of Finland in
1300, the seat of the
bishop of Turku. It was considerably expanded in the
14th and
15th centuries, mainly using stone as the construction material. The church was badly damaged during the
Great Fire of Turku in
1827, and was rebuilt to a great extent afterwards.
