Heinola Parish Church

The church stands at an elevation of 95 meters, featuring Nordic architectural elements with a separate bell tower in traditional Finnish design.

The original church construction started in 1755, with architect August Sorsa later contributing to modifications that shaped its current appearance.

The church forms part of the Heinolan maaseurakunnan kirkkoympäristö complex, serving as a central religious gathering space for the local Lutheran community.

Located at coordinates 61.2519° N and 26.0686° E, the church offers regular services and maintains protected status as a heritage building.

The bell tower stands independently from the main church structure, following a construction pattern found in several Finnish religious buildings.
