Шаблон:Short description

Шаблон:Infobox diocese The Diocese of Tampere (Шаблон:Lang-fi, Шаблон:Lang-sv) is the second oldest[1] and the largest diocese in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland. It is divided into 69 parishes with a total population of over 595,000 people. The diocese is led by the Bishop of Tampere.

History

The history of the diocese goes back over 450 years. It was founded in 1554 when King Gustav Vasa divided the diocese of Turku, extending over the whole country, into two parts. At first, the new diocese was established in Viipuri, the first bishop being Paavali Juusteen. After the Russian occupation of Viipuri in 1723, the bishop's seat was moved to Porvoo instead. But with the foundation of a new Swedish Diocese in Porvoo in 1923, the second oldest diocese of Finland had to move to Tampere; since then the diocese has been called the Diocese of Tampere.[2]

Tampere Cathedral opens every day but places some limitations on the number of hours it is opened. At the upper part of the cathedral, there is The Wounded Angel.[3] People are not usually allowed to visit the upper part of the cathedral.
