Mustio church

Mustio church is a white wooden chapel near the former Svartå ironworks in Raseborg. The building has a slender bell tower and follows traditional Finnish country church design with simple lines and bright walls.

The church was built in 1761 to serve workers at the nearby ironworks facility. It became necessary as rapid industrial development in the area required a new religious community.

The building maintains its status as a church-protected structure, reflecting Finnish religious heritage through regular Lutheran ceremonies and community gatherings.

The church is accessible to visitors and can be explored during visiting hours. It is wise to check opening times in advance as these vary by season and events.

The building stands amid the remains of an industrial past where ironworkers once labored. This location unusually connects a place of work and a place of faith.
