Kasinoparken

park garden

The Kasinoparken park on the Katajanokka peninsula takes its name from the Kasino building nearby, a structure likely finished in nineteen thirteen for the Russian officer corps. This park occupies the land surrounding a building that once hosted lavish celebrations for officers before the Russian Revolution disrupted its purpose. You can identify the area by its proximity to the distinctive Kasino, which features a round dome in its attic that, according to local rumors, Vice Admiral Niepen still haunts following his execution in nineteen seventeen.
