Havis Amanda since 1906 is one of the best-known symbols of Helsinki. Other women in the city and their histories may not be as well known.

Helsinki has once been called the city of women, as a large proportion of immigrants have traditionally been working women who have been offered jobs in the capital's offices and shops.
