Parties & Functions

The old church hall at Hotel Katajanokka has piloted couples into the safe port of marriage for already 170-some-years. Refurbished into an intimate ballroom, the orginal altar, altar pieces and the sounds of the historic church organ all create a warm, yet dignified atmosphere for your wedding. The lush Linnanpuisto park is an ideal setting for summery wedding coctails, or even for the ceremony itself. With the ceremony in our church, dinner at Linnankellari and accommodation upstairs, your wedding can take place under one roof. Start your lifelong journey in a personal way, inside the safety of our red brick walls.

Our function rooms and the hundred-year-old assembly hall are perfect for an unforgettable party or anniversary. In the kitchen, the Linnankellari brigade is able and happy to give their best in creating delicious treats to all kinds and sizes of functions – just the way you like it. And to put the finishing touches to a perfect evening, your hero of the day and guests can enjoy the luxurious comforts of our hotel rooms. Want to have a party of a lifetime? Let’s talk!

During the house tour you will dive into the history of the former prison. You will learn about the different stages of the history of the building as well as hear stories about the former prisoners. You get the chance to visit in the group cell and the isolation cell with the guide.

House tour can only be booked together with a meeting and/or catering.

An efficient meeting deserves a proper espape from the ordinary. A prison tour is an ideal way to cut a long meeting day with a well-deserved break. But there’s a plenty more activities in the rock – and even a few outside: how about a Riot in jail or Murder mystery of the Prison Warden or maybe some Prison Orienteering?
