Seurasaari is a small island close to the Helsinki city center and serves as an open air museum. You are only allowed to enter the island by foot and once there you can enjoy the natural surroundings. Throughout the island there are different buildings which have been brought from all over Finland to show how local life was in those areas.
Not only are there older buildings but there are also more modern ones like this wilderness church hidden away on the south coast of the island.

I just love those photos – that wilderness church, built like a boat, is a real work of art

It’s a beautiful location. What the building is used for is a little bit of a mystery as I have never seen any other people there.

Love the modern church. A mini version of the one at Kampe in Helsinki?

Yes, It does have similarities. Modern architecture in Finland has reverted back to wood in recent years and it has been seen a lot more.
