Modern Helsinki: New Layers of the City, 1930–2018 (ADM Helsinki)

The museum’s guide walks the layers Helsinki added to itself between 1930 and 2018 — the decades in which the city stopped being a nineteenth-century capital and became a modern one. Ninety minutes on foot, in English, reading the additions in the order they arrived.

This is the second August date for the walk, after 6 August. It is one of seven themed architecture walks the Arkkitehtuuri- ja designmuseo runs in English through the month.
