Kulosaari manor

Helsinki, Finland

Exterior only

Visible from the street; the inside is private.

Kulosaari Manor, a neoclassical mansion located near the Kulosaari neighbourhood of Helsinki, was designed by architect Pehr Granstedt in 1815. The current main building may incorporate elements of an earlier eighteenth-century house originally commissioned by Count Augustin Ehrensvärd, while the manor's history extends back to the sixteenth century, with Erik Filpusson documented as its earliest known owner from 1540 to 1587. Originally built for the noble Jägerhorn af Storby family, the manor has been owned by the City of Helsinki since 1927 and has served various purposes, including use by JHL, the Trade Union for Public and Welfare Sectors, for events and recreational activities.
