One of the northernmost medieval churches in the world and the northernmost one in Finland. Although said to be built around 1520 the church is probably built between 1530 and 1550, in the very end of the Catholic era. This church is one of the most popular attractions in Lapland. The main reason is the undecomposed body of priest Nicolaus Rungius, who died in 1629. Taking photos of the mummy is forbidden. The new Keminmaa church, built in 1827, is across the road.
