Norrmén house

The Norrmén house, also known as the Norrmén castle and palace, was a red brick residential house representing the neo-renaissance architecture, situated for 63 years in Katajanokka, Helsinki, Finland, opposite the Uspenski Cathedral.

The building also hosted the Eastern Emigrants Club and its restaurant until 1944, when it was discontinued.

Some have even proposed that Aalto's building should be dismantled and a replica of the Norrmén house should be built in its place.

However, the city of Helsinki, along with the National Board of Antiquities is strongly in favour of preserving the main office building.

In the 2004 film Pelikaanimies, directed by Liisa Helminen, the Norrmén house has been digitally built back in its place.
