Ilmajoki Church

The wooden cruciform structure of Ilmajoki Church extends across its location, with a capacity to accommodate 1,000 worshippers within its walls.

Architect Matti Honka designed this Lutheran church, which opened its doors in 1766, followed by the addition of a bell tower in 1804.

The altarpiece, painted by Alexandra Frosterus-Såltin in 1879, replaced the original artwork by Johan Alm, now displayed in Ilmajoki Church Museum.

The church maintains its position at 45 meters above sea level, making it visible from various points throughout the Ilmajoki region.

The church grounds include a mausoleum belonging to the Könni family, adding historical depth to this protected religious structure.
