Runeberginkatu

Runeberginkatu (Swedish: Runebergsgatan) is a major street in central Helsinki, Finland.

Starting from Kampintori, it runs in a sweeping arc broadly northwards for approximately 1.8 kilometres (1.1 mi) through the districts of Kamppi and Töölö, via Töölöntori square, terminating at a junction with Mannerheimintie by the Finnish National Opera.

The street is named after Johan Ludvig Runeberg, the national poet of Finland.

[1] Sections of the street carry tram traffic (as of January 2021, routes 1, 2 and 8).

[3] The Finnish-language business school, Helsinki School of Economics and Business Administration, was also located nearby, before becoming a part of the newly formed Aalto University and moving to the latter's Otaniemi campus.
