Martin's Church, Lutheran church in IV District, Turku, Finland
Martin's Church stands 24 meters tall with a barrel-vaulted roof and three main aisles, featuring Nordic Classicism and functionalist architectural elements throughout its structure.
The church's consecration in 1933 coincided with the 450th anniversary of Martin Luther's birth, marking a significant moment for the Lutheran community in Turku.
The altar wall displays a monumental painting of Jesus Christ at Golgatha, measuring 15 meters high and 9.5 meters wide, created by artists Einari Wehmas and Karl Ingenius.
The church building serves as the primary worship location for Martin's parish, established in 1921, offering regular services and community gatherings in central Turku.
Five decorative sculptures by artist Aarre Aaltonen embellish the pulpit, while symbolic images of apostles and an advent scene grace the organ gallery.
