Kymi Church, Stone church building in Helilä, Kotka, Finland
The neoclassical Kymi Church stands 28 meters high and features a symmetrical design with clean lines and balanced proportions in its architecture.
Carl Ludvig Engel designed this stone church, which opened in 1851 to replace previous wooden structures destroyed by fires in 1837 and 1843.
The interior contains artifacts from earlier churches, including an 18th-century chalice donated by Karl Henrik Wrangel and chandeliers dating from 1790.
Located at Karhulantie 33 in Kotka, the church maintains regular services and remains an active center for religious gatherings in the community.
The altarpiece 'Jesus in Gethsemane' by Berndt Godenhjelm from 1865 decorates the interior, while bells from Pernaja Forsby Ironworks date to 1736.
