Oulunkylä Old Church

The Oulunkylä Old Church stands at Siltavoudintie 12 in Helsinki, featuring traditional wooden architecture characteristic of early 20th-century Finnish religious structures.

Built in 1905 as a house of prayer for the Evangelical Association, the church changed administrative regions from Vantaa to Oulunkylä in 1921 and Helsinki in 1946.

The church maintains its role in the community by hosting baptisms and weddings, representing a connection between Finnish religious traditions and local families.

Located at coordinates 60.231389° latitude and 24.967222° longitude, the church remains accessible for religious ceremonies and community gatherings throughout the year.

Local residents contributed directly to the construction of this wooden church, which served as the main parish church until the completion of a new building in 1972.
