How do finns cope that Helsinki was built by the Russian Empire?

actually Finns demolished a lot of Russian-style buildings to make room for modernist atrocities in the 60s and 70s

btw, we also have a city built under the Russian Empire, it gets little attention but it's a big city that used to be called a Polish Manchester in the 19th century, there is a big shopping centre in an old red brick factory:

Just same what USSR did at same time.

I dont. I cut myself just thinking about that white marble

But the USSR was a totalitarian, ideological state, Finland was supposedly liberal, democratic and such a country should care about its historical heritage

We will quarantine that shit off at midnight. It's like it doesn't exist anymore, so I don't give a shit.

>Hellasfor
>not built by the greeks
Nice bait

Finland have always spiritually supported fascism. They never question the authorities or giving them even more unchecked powers.

Oh, yeah, sorry. Forgot about it.
I'm pretty sure, evil totalitarian USSR sis it on much higher level than free democratic Finland.

thats swedish architechture no?

ruotsi

sverige

Maybe we're all the same, you, me, and Russia

Helsinki is now locked down so Turku returns to its former glory as the temporary capital. How do Finns feel about that?

Stockholm is just a better kept Petersburg.

We're very thankful for all the beautiful buildings they left behind. Thank you Rusbros.

I don't feel things since I died on the inside 3 years ago.

Practically this. What Putin has done to extend his terms is nothing like Kekkonen did in 70's.

I piss on russian architecture

t. Sven Johannson

The architect who designed those buildings was a German named C.L. Engel commissioned by the Russian czar. The buildings were designed in similar international neo-classical style to St. Petersburg.

Most of Helsinki has been built after the independence.

Pretty much all of the older buildings are built by the Finnish senate that governed autonomous Finland.

Finland is just like Russia except better kept

russia is just east sweden

Russia granted Finland autonomy (almost independence) so that's why some czars were quite popular. There is still the statue of Alexander II at the center of the Senate square.

Does this guy have statues in Poland...

1,5km from the Finnish border

Actually I find it interesting how some cultures and architecture are similar just because of their location despite having no obvious ties to each other. I mean, Petersburg looks almost the same like Stockholm (let alone poor maintenance, just pure architecture), even though as far as I know Swedish architects didn't really participate in its construction, it was mostly Germans, Dutch and Italians.

*Helsingfors

Here, have a map with the real names

Helsinki was established as a trading town by King Gustav I of Sweden in 1550 as the town of Helsingfors, which he intended to be a rival to the Hanseatic city of Reval (today known as Tallinn).[25] In order to populate his newly founded town, the King issued an order to resettle the bourgeoisie of Porvoo, Ekenäs, Rauma and Ulvila into the town.[26]

That looks nothing like a Russian house though. You are just projecting your ex eastern bloc past here, Paweł.

Much, MUCH better

>Does this guy have statues in Poland...

> Among his greatest domestic challenges was an uprising in Poland in 1863, to which he responded by stripping that land of its separate constitution and incorporating it directly into Russia

>The Polish language was banned in both oral and written form from all provinces except Congress Poland, where it was allowed in private conversations only.

>Ignacy Hryniewiecki or Ignaty Grinevitsky[i] (Russian: Игнaтий Гpинeвицкий; c.1856 — March 13, 1881) was a Polish member of the Russian conspirational revolutionary society Narodnaya Volya. He gained notoriety for participating in the bombing attack to which Tsar Alexander II of Russia succumbed. Hryniewiecki threw the bomb that fatally wounded the Tsar and himself.

how do you think?

>Forssa
>not Forss
Absolutely disgusting and pathetic

>>nalichniki

this is all just maintenance, that's what I said

but the architectural style is almost the same like Russian wooden huts

>chimp out

>NNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!

>no dacha

btw, you don't have a dacha in your yard, that's the point of a dacha - it's a house in a village for people who live in commieblocks and need to relax on weekends

St Petersburg was intentionally built in European style because Peter the great wanted to modernize Russia. Later, conservative czars added some nationalistic buildings like this church.

>better kept
It looks worse than the datchas where I have one

and Uspenski cathedral in Helsinki. It was built there because they tried to end Finnish autonomy but Finns revolted and the Russian general governor was assassinated.

Forsby

my dacha is better than your dacha, faggot

the January Uprising was indeed totally unnecessary and hopeless

But Poles did want to come to terms with Russians, but Russians don't respect any agreements, the Russian tzar gradually limited Polish freedoms so Poles had to respond with an uprising, even if it didn't have a chance to be victorious.

And the tzar started the process of incorporation of Finland into Russia in the 1900s too, thankfully for Finns WW1 and the revolution broke out.

se o vorsa vitu homo

>built in European style

But it is not just "a European style", this is clearly the most similar to Stockholm and not to, let's say, Vienna, Paris, Berlin or Rome. That's why it is interesting that Swedes didn't really take part in it yet the city looks pretty much...Swedish.

It became the capital in 1810 when russia moved it to Helsinki. Then they built it in neoclassical style

Ursäkta, men pratar du svenska?

>because it's made from wood it's the same

>architectural style is almost the same like Russian wooden huts

They are absolutely not lmao. Typical Russian wooden house looks like this, completely different shape and style, ignore the condition. Also stuff like nalichinki is not about maintenance, it's about style and decoration. the houses you posted are closer to the traditional Nordic farmhouses.

Im serious. Those look really bad. All the ones we have here are modern cottages with lots of land

ja jag heter peter och jag sucker cucker

We did build S:t Petersburg

Trevligt att träffas Peter, kan inte vara lätt att vara homofil.

I remembered correctly then
