Huopalahden kirkko, Wooden church in Etelä-Haaga, Finland

Huopalahden kirkko is a red wooden church in Etelä-Haaga with a single-nave design and a three-part ceiling structure. The building sits in a park setting at an elevation of about 21 meters.

The building was originally constructed in 1908 as an assembly hall for Finnish speakers. It was converted into a church in 1917 and formally dedicated in 1942.

The interior showcases works by several Finnish artists, including an altarpiece by Olli Miettinen and sculptures by Eeva Ryynänen. Textiles designed by Raija Rastas add another layer of artistic expression to the worship space.

The main worship space accommodates about 200 people, while an additional parish hall provides 66 seats for gatherings. Visitors should check opening times in advance and can explore the architectural details at a comfortable pace.

The church bells form a major triad with the notes A, C-sharp, and E. This musical arrangement works together with a Danish Marcussen organ featuring 18 stops to create a distinctive sound experience.
