The medieval grey granite church is the oldest existing building in Espoo. The church’s oldest parts date back to the 1480s. The architect was an unknown “Espoo master“. Together with the Hattula and Lohja churches, the Espoo church is a significant monument of medieval murals. The church is also the most important single building in Espoo from the point of view of both building history and landscape.

Open daily from 10 - 18.
Services in Finnish on Sundays at 10 a.m. and in Swedish at noon.
