Kirkkonummi, Municipality in Uusimaa, Finland.

Kirkkonummi is a municipality in the Uusimaa region that spreads across multiple peninsulas and coastal areas along southern Finland's shore. The territory combines water and land in varied ways while incorporating several distinct districts and populated zones.

Stone Age rock paintings near Lake Vitträsk show that people have lived in this region for thousands of years. Between 1945 and 1956, the Soviet Union operated a naval base in a section of the municipality.

The municipal center has a medieval stone church, while the Haapajärvi area contains a wooden counterpart built much later. These two structures reflect different periods and construction traditions that shaped the local landscape over centuries.

The municipality sits roughly 30 kilometers from Helsinki and has strong transportation links to the capital. Most areas are accessible by car or public transit without much difficulty.

The population here speaks multiple languages in everyday life, with Finnish being most common, followed by Swedish and others. This linguistic mix shapes how people communicate and interact throughout the area.
