Minerva, Siltavuorenpenger 5 A

Minerva comprises sections built at different times. The old Minerva building was designed by Gustaf Nyström and completed in 1905. The new Minerva building was designed by Arkkitehtiryhmä A6 and completed in 2005. The two buildings are connected by a third one, the structure of which is from the 1960s. Its current appearance was designed by Esa Laaksonen, and the renovation was completed in 2004. The old Minerva housed the Faculty of Medicine until its relocation to Meilahti in the early 2000s. The new Minerva was planned to meet the needs of the Faculty of Educational Sciences, which now occupies both the old and new buildings.
