A new, self-directed tour will take you on a unique journey of the Olympia Terminal and other Olympic-themed buildings around Helsinki. You can learn more about Helsinki, its maritime beauty and versatile connections centred around the wonderful Olympia Terminal.

Olympia Terminal – a seaside gate to the world

The Olympia Terminal is the pride of the Port of Helsinki and an important passenger traffic hub. The beautiful, functionalist building was completed for the 1952 Helsinki Olympics and has since welcomed millions of passengers from all over the world. Although the anniversary tour is already available, the Passenger Pavilion will celebrate its 75th anniversary in 2027.

“The policy of sustainable and responsible construction in Helsinki started nearly one hundred years ago. It is especially wonderful that the buildings dating back to the Helsinki Olympics form a unique and still completely functional entity formed around a single theme, as nothing like this has been preserved elsewhere in the world,” says tour developer Sari Härme from the Port of Helsinki.

“I wish that the buildings being constructed today would be designed in the same way to stand the test of time. Old buildings remain examples of sustainability and quality, which we should also strive for today,” Härme continues.

“Reveel is a platform that modernises visits to sights and destinations. Old paper signs can be replaced by interactive digital guidebooks that open up on visitors’ phones in their own language. You can also build digital guided audio tours in Reveel, replacing old audio devices and single-use headphones,” says the founder of the Finnish app, Managing Director Sebastian Mellblom.

“In addition to the Port of Helsinki, dozens of Finnish destinations already use Reveel. Our first international cooperation projects have also begun in Italy, Spain and Sweden. We want to prove that our Finnish innovation can be used to make visiting a destination more modern and fun as well as easier and more sustainable,” Mellblom says.
