The Diocese of Helsinki ((フィンランド語:Helsingin hiippakunta); (スウェーデン語:Helsingfors stift)) is a diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland, and the seat of the Bishop of Helsinki. Its cathedral is Helsinki Cathedral. The Diocese was established in 1959 by dividing the Diocese of Tampere. It covers only 1% of the country's territory, but contains 10% of its population. The diocese comprises 39 parishes. It was partitioned again in 2002, when the western part became the Diocese of Espoo. The current Bishop of Helsinki, Irja Askola, was ordained on 12 September 2010, and thus become the first woman to become a bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland. == Bishops of Helsinki == *Martti Simojoki 1959–1964 *Aarre Lauha 1964–1972 *Aimo T.
