Turku Cathedral
It was a beautiful day.  The copper top of this old, old church stands out nicely against the sky.  This medieval cathedral was consecrated in 1300, and is the national shrine of the Evangelical-Lutheran Church of Finland.  Many Swedish notables are buried here, and there is a nice museum inside (See Churches and Cathedrals in Two and Three Dimensions for more photos of this church).
