The Neoclassical Old Church has stood on the Central Square since 1824. At that time, there were only a few thousand inhabitants in Tampere. The wooden church has been restored and otherwise altered on several occasions, but its present appearance is very close to the original. The church bell tower features the oldest public clock in Tampere, a one-hand apparatus made by Juho Könni. The altarpiece was painted by Robert Wilhelm Ekman in 1831. The church is a popular venue for weddings and small concerts. The Old Church is the home of the Swedish Congregation of Tampere. Services are held in Swedish at 10.30am on Sundays. In addition, an international group gathers for a service in English at 4pm every Sunday. Everyone is welcome to attend.
