The Russian Orthodox Church (the Church of Saints Alexander Nevsky and Saint Nikolaos) was built for a congregation of 200 Orthodox in Tampere in 1896-1899. Today the community has 4500 members and extends to Vaasa and Seinäjoki.

The text above must be corrected. The church is an Tampere Orthodox church. Also known as the Church of St. Alexander Nevsky and St. Nicholas. But it is not and never has been "Russian". That's insulting.
