Kalanti Church, Stone church in Kalanti, Uusikaupunki, Finland.

The Kalanti Church stands at an elevation of 13 meters, featuring a central panel and double doors with relief sculptures depicting religious scenes.

The altarpiece, created by Master Francke in Hamburg during the 1430s, includes panel paintings that illustrate the martyrdom story of Saint Barbara.

The church maintains its status as a Cultural Heritage Site of National Significance, protected under Finnish preservation regulations for built environments.

The altarpiece measures approximately 200 centimeters in height and 260 centimeters in width when opened, constructed entirely from oak with oil paint decorations.

In 1903, the National Museum acquired the altarpiece from the Kalanti parish, and during the 1920s, its sculpture and painting components were separated.
