St. Henry’s Ecumenical Art Chapel is a truly unique and peaceful spot that blends art, architecture, and spirituality. Nestled in the quiet surroundings of Hirvensalo Island, this chapel stands out with its modern wooden design and warm, glowing interiors, it actually looks like an upside-down boat inside!

Even if you’re not into spirituality, it’s still such a special place to visit. The light filters beautifully through the wooden walls, creating a calm, cozy atmosphere that makes you want to just sit for a moment and breathe.

The chapel also hosts art exhibitions, concerts, and other small events throughout the year, adding a creative touch to the experience.
