Martin's Church is one of Turku's notable 20th-century churches, built in a restrained functionalist style rather than the medieval language of Turku Cathedral. Its tall tower makes it easy to pick out from the surrounding district.
The church is worth a short architectural detour if you are exploring beyond the riverfront. The interior is simple and carefully proportioned, offering a different side of Finnish church design from the older stone and brick monuments in the city center.
