Högbergsgatan 21, Helsingfors - Great Residence 21
"Since its construction, Grand Residence 21 has been a proud witness and participant in the creation of cultural heritage and history of Finland.
A Swedish Master Painter and industrialist Per Erik Färlander built the magnificent property at Korkeavuorenkatu 21 in 1888-1889. Färlander was also the founder of Sandudd wall paper factory, an active entrepreneur and community member. The architect he chose to draw the house was a fellow countryman, Swedish architect Axel Högberg. Grand Residence 21 is the oldest stone house in its city block and became directly a dominant local landmark. Together with neighbouring Johannes Church and the Surgical Hospital, the property brought new life and style to the whole surroundings. The first residents moved in during spring 1889, among them also P.E. Färlander."
