Ekenäs Church, Neoclassical church building in Ekenäs, Finland.

The stone church features large windows, granite walls, and stands 36 meters long and 17 meters wide in the Old Town of Ekenäs.

The construction of the church began in 1651 under earl Gustaf Adolf Leijonhufvud, with completion in 1680 by his son Gustav Mauritz Leijonhufvud.

The church contains a Bible from vicar Sigfridus Aronus Forsius and an altar piece from 1660 with paintings depicting the Holy Trinity.

The church serves as a central point for exploring nearby attractions, including Basatorget square, the old Town Hall, and the market area.

The organ inside the church, built by Anders Thulé and donated in 1842, underwent multiple renovations until its latest restoration in 1992.
