[2] Between 1946 and 1959, Turkey was represented in Finland at the levels of Charge d'affaires and Minister Plenipotentiary.

[3] The legation, and later embassy, has always been based in Puistokatu 1, although its chancellery moved first to Tehtaankatu in 1958 and later to Topeliuksenkatu to return to its original location in 1992.

The building also houses the embassy's official premises for public functions on its lower floor, but these have largely been proven to be small for large-scale events.

The embassy has mostly preserved its original late neoclassical style but with some added Turkish elements.

[3] Occasionally tensions in Turkish domestic politics have spilled over to the embassy, namely in terms of the Kurdish question.
