Luumäki was separated from Lappee as its own parish in 1642.[1] The first church in the Luumäki parish was probably built as soon as the parish became independent. It was destroyed during the Great Wrath (Isoviha). The second church, completed in 1731, was damaged during the Lesser Wrath (Pikkuviha) and had become small and in poor condition by the turn of the 19th century. The church and the belfry built from 1781 burned down in 1839. The parish had acquired the drawings of the new church even before the fire of the second church, but its construction did not begin until after the fire of the second church due to a dispute over the location. The new church was consecrated in 1845.[2]
