About Helsinki Congress Paasitorni
The ruggedly beautiful granite fortress in Siltasaari, now the Paasitorni conference and congress centre, was designed by architect Karl Lindahl, and opened as the Helsinki Workers’ House, providing leisure activities, entertainment and education for the workers of Helsinki, in 1908. The building has been tastefully restored to its former glory, respecting its historic past yet meeting all the demands made of a modern conference centre.
In operating as a conference and congress centre, Paasitorni seeks to preserve the original character of the building as a venue for large meetings and events. Clients appreciate Paasitorni’s rich history and unique architecture. In maintaining the building, carrying out new building work and developing the conference business, its heritage is always respected.
Paasitorni was presented as a candidate Unesco World Heritage Site in 2010, as one of eight other historic buildings linked to the labour movement.
