Wonderful example of medieval Finnish Church with colourful "a secco" paintings and beautiful carved sculptures. One of the only three medieval building made of bricks in Finland, together with Turku's cathedral and Hämeenlinna's Castle.

Awesome mediaeval church. Outside it looks like normal old church, but you will be amazed when seeing the insides. Outside a shop to buy local hand crafted items.

The building looks like a typical church, but still impressive especially after Häme fortress.

Extraordinary old church. With almost untouched original wall paintings.
