Turku Cathedral is not a museum itself, but there is also a small museum in the church. The Cathedral museum is located in the second floor, on the southern lectern. There is a small entrance fee to the museum: 2€ / adult and 1€ / child. There are artefacts from the Cathedral’s history on display in the museum.

During the summer, there is also a small café located in the groundwork of the Cathedral. Domcafé serves with coffee and small snacks throughout the summer months.

Note: The Cathedral Museum and the café are closed from February 9, 2026, to December 2, 2028 due to the renovation of the cathedral.
