On 3 September 2025, the foundation stone was laid for Turku Port’s new joint passenger terminal, part of the Ferry Terminal Turku project. The ceremony gathered project partners, designers, builders and city representatives.
Construction started in January 2025 and will take about two years. The new terminal, named ORIGAMI, will replace the existing Viking Line and Tallink Silja terminals. It is designed for up to 4,000 passengers and will serve all regularly operating ships to Turku.
Ville Niinistö, Chair of the Board at Turku Satama Oy, said the terminal would act as a “gateway to smooth travel.” Viking Line CEO Jan Hanses underlined its importance for Turku as a transport hub, citing more than 50 years of connections between Turku and Stockholm.
