Kajaani Church
Photo: Outdoors Kainuu

The Kajaani Evangelical Lutheran Church was built in 1897. It was designed by Jacob Ahrenberg and represents the most decorative Neo-Gothic style of the late 19th century.

The wooden church with its rich decorations was designed by Jacob Ahrenberg. The so-called carpenter-style was used on the inner structures and the roof trusses were influenced by the ones in the Westminster Hall in London. The placement of the church tower on the middle axis of the chamber is of German influence. The slender tower also has a touch of Italian Renaissance and Baroque styles.

Opening times

Kajaani Church is a road church (tiekirkko), open from June to mid-August every day from 10 am to 6 pm.
