Lauttasaari Church, Lutheran church at Myllykallio, Helsinki, Finland

The church structure consists of a two-storey wing connecting two separate halls within a U-shaped complex with sandblasted white concrete walls.

Architects Marja and Keijo Petäjä designed the church after winning a competition in 1953, and the building opened its doors in 1958.

The interior features wooden grid ceilings, brass lighting fixtures, and textiles created by Finnish designers Ilmari Tapiovaara, Annikki Tapiovaara, and Hilkka Vuorinen.

The facility includes multiple spaces such as club rooms, a sports hall, a church café, a music school, and a kindergarten within its premises.

A monumental staircase bordered by boulder walls leads to the main entrance, while a 60-meter campanile rises over the Lauttasaari district.
