About this site

The building, completed in 1862 as the Court of Appeal for Vaasa and representing English-influenced Neo-Gothic in unrendered brick, has housed the court of appeal continuously since its completion. The Court of Appeal, designed by county architect C.A. Setterberg in 1855, is among his most significant works. The building retains a large number of original decorative paintings, which were conserved during restorations in 1975–76 and 1985–87.
