    The oldest, richly decorated part of the library, dating from 1903, is inspired by the Dutch late Renaissance. It blends harmoniously with the elegant, modern extension by JMKK Architects from 2007, which encloses a quiet courtyard in the middle.

      The 2,900 m² Turku Main Library is a Dutch late Renaissance style building built in 1903 and delivered by Turku's merchant councilor Fredric von Rettig and designed by Karl August Wrede. The design was based on a Swedish noble house in Stockholm. The first floor was a national library for the working class and the second was the city library for academics. These two libraries merged in 1912 to form the Turku City Library.
