Decorated wooden church finished in 1749, with current look from 1890. It's on Kirkkosaari, an island in Lake Köyliö. There seems to have been an older church on the site, and it is speculated that it had heritage from pre-Swedish times: it was known as "Lallin kellari", which may be from Celtic kel-air. The first bishop of Finland (according to legend), Saint Henry, was murdered by Lalli on the lake after a forced visit. The route from Kirkkosaari to Nousiainen, where Saint Henry was buried, became a popular (now revived) pilgrimage.
The 20th-century granite church originally served as a chapel, but was later consecrated as a church. Next to the church is the Panelia's dairy, which was built in 1908, and today serves as a party space for various occasions.
