Pispala Old Church, Wooden church in Ala-Pispala, Finland.

The Pispala Old Church stands as a wooden structure with traditional architectural elements, featuring lumber construction and traditional Finnish design principles.

Finnish architect Wivi Lönn designed this religious building, which opened its doors to the community in December 1908 as a place of worship.

The interior of the church contains a medieval crucifix and a carved pulpit from 1660, both transferred from the former Harju chapel.

The church functions as both a religious center and a public venue, providing space for various community activities in the Tampere region.

Located on the northern slope of Pispalanharju, the church maintains its original wooden construction methods from the early twentieth century.
