The Tohmajärvi Church (fi|Tohmajärven kirkko) is the 18th-century wooden church located on the shores of Lake Tohmajärvi, about southeast of Kemie, the administrative center of the Tohmajärvi municipality in North Karelia, Finland. The building is the oldest wooden church in North Karelia.[1] [2] [3]
The construction of the church started in 1751 under the direction of the architect [4] and it was completed five years later.[1] [3] A separate three-jointed belfry was built in 1760.[1] [4] The altarpiece of the church called The Crucified was painted by Mikael Toppelius in 1783.[3] [5]
The church's 17+2 tone pipe organ was manufactured by the Kangasala's organ factory in 1956.[6]
