Brahe field
An open sports pitch in northern Kallio where you can play football (soccer) in the summer and ice hockey or bandy in the winter or watch a home game of the Finnish bandy league team HIFK.
The green parks and small apartment buildings on the top of a hill and in the centre of Finland's densest-populated neighbourhood are protected as an exemplary early-20th century working-class cultural environment. Around, you will find a former university at Franzéninkatu 13 and a former technical school at Agricolankatu 1-3, as well as small cafes, bars and restaurants.
The "Sports house" offers swimming, bowling or exercising.
Karhupuisto
A cosy small park on the hill next to Kallio church and one of Kallio's symbols. The park got its name from the bear statue in the middle of it.
Kallion kirkko/Berghälls kyrka
On top of the hill at the end of Siltasaarenkatu. The church is built of grey granite (1912) and its massive looks dominate the view from Hakaniemi. It was designed by Finnish architect Lars Sonck. The church has both baroque and French romantic organs and concerts are organized frequently. The bells ring at noon and 19:00 with a tune composed by Jean Sibelius.
This is the last wood-burning public sauna in Helsinki. Separate saunas for men and women. There's a good chance you'll find a top level chess match in the dressing room. Don't miss cooling off outside, especially in winter. On Saturdays you'll find bachelor parties (Kotiharju is pretty near to Kallio's nightlife).
