Nurmijärvi church, Protected church building in Nurmijärvi, Finland.
The wooden church incorporates a transcendental cross design with beveled inner corners and hallways at the ends of three structural bars.
The church was constructed in 1793 under special permission from King Gustav III, who generally required churches to be built from stone.
Biblical scenes and paintings of the Apostles from the 1830s were rediscovered during restoration work for the church's 200th anniversary celebration.
The front seats and altar bracket are designed to be movable, allowing flexible arrangements for different types of religious and community events.
Originally positioned near Lake Kirkkojärvi, the church's surrounding landscape changed after the lake was drained during the twentieth century.
