Porvoo Cathedral is a medieval stone church on the hill above the old town, built in the 15th century on the walls of an earlier 13th-century church. The first Diet of Finland opened here in 1809. Burned many times, most recently by arson in 2006, it is the seat of the Swedish-speaking Diocese of Borgå.
Old Porvoo is the historic centre of Porvoo on the bank of the Porvoo River, with a street plan from the Middle Ages and wooden houses mostly built between 1760 and 1820, after a fire destroyed much of the town. Visitors see the red storehouses along the river, cobbled lanes, the Old Town Hall square and the cathedral hill.
