Excerpt from Wikipedia

St. Henry's Cathedral is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Helsinki, Finland, dedicated to Henry, a 12th-century Bishop of Finland. It is the Cathedral Church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Helsinki.

It was constructed between 1858–1860, primarily to serve Russian Catholics in the army, as well as Catholic merchants. Although it was finished in 1860, it was not consecrated until 1904. It became the Cathedral Church of Helsinki in 1955. The architecture of the church is Gothic Revival. Statues of Saint Henry, Saint Peter and Saint Paul decorate the exterior.
