Muonio Church, Lutheran church in Muonio, Finland

The church stands at an elevation of 247 meters, featuring a semi-cruciform design with white exterior walls and a central bell tower.

Charles Bassi designed this church in 1817, and the structure remained intact during the intense conflicts of the Lapland War.

The interior displays the 'Jesus Among Folk' altar painting by Anton Lindfors, depicting a rainbow against the northern fell landscape.

The church opens its doors to visitors from Thursday to Sunday between 11 AM and 4 PM during summer months.

With a capacity of 600 people, this church serves the northernmost municipality of Finnish Lapland at the Swedish border.
