Tampere Central Fire Station

Emma's back is aching a lot, meds did not help and she was not able to sleep last night. So we went to see a doctor again, Hubby and Emma went to the clinic, and I walked around with Peetu. It rained. MRI was recommended. 

When we were back at home, she took her meds, and was finally able to sleep. Later in the evening Emma finally felt a bit better. Hopefully tomorrow will also be better.

In the picture is a part of Tampere Central Fire Station.

Tampere Central Fire Station is based on Wivi Lönn’s winning proposal to an architectural competition, arranged in 1905. When the board of the competition found out that the winning entry’s designer was a woman, they decided to dismiss it. However, Tampere City Architect Birger Federley convinced the board to realise Wivi Lönn’s proposal. Tampere Central Fire Station was the first building in Finland realised based on an architectural competition won by a female architect. The building was completed in 1908.
