Töölö Sports Hall ((フィンランド語:Töölön kisahalli), (スウェーデン語:Tölö sporthall)) is a sports venue located in the Töölö district of Helsinki, Finland. It was designed by Aarne Hytönen and Risto-Veikko Luukkonen〔 and built in 1935 as Messuhalli〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Töölö Sports Hall )〕 (Exhibition Hall). It is located near the Olympic Stadium, the Opera House, and the Sonera Stadium. The hall was originally a venue for concerts, banquets and sporting events, but is now used only for training and competition in various sports. In preparation for the 1952 Summer Olympics the building was expanded on the northern side.〔 During the Olympics gymnastics, wrestling, boxing and weightlifting events as well as the basketball finals were held at the venue. In June 1966 the hot pitch used to fix the hall's roof caught fire. The ensuing blaze almost destroyed the whole building but was eventually extinguished with the help of 175 firemen and the army, the latter of which kept the gathered crowds out of the way. In 1975 the hall was moved to Helsinki city ownership and got its current name.〔 It is the home arena of the basketball team Torpan Pojat and more recently the Helsinki Seagulls men's basketball team. The hall is listed by Docomomo as a significant example of modern architecture in Finland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://docomomo-fi.com/index.php?k=218338 )〕 ==References== *(1952 Summer Olympics official report. ) p. 51. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Töölö Sports Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
