Vihti Church, Lutheran church in Vihti, Finland.

The church features a cross-shaped layout with a bell tower on its western side and stands prominently on Hartanmäki Hill in Vihti village.

Built in 1772 according to architect Antti Piimänen's designs, the church survived two major lightning-induced fires in 1818 and 1846.

The church served both Finnish and Swedish-speaking congregations until 1926, reflecting the linguistic diversity of the Vihti community at that time.

The church building accommodates 500 to 600 people and maintains full wheelchair accessibility throughout its premises for all visitors.

Following the 1846 fire, architect Charles Bassi redesigned the church, adding more windows while maintaining the original structural form.
