Located in the Nousiainen region on the southwest coast of Finland, it is an ancient church with significant historical and cultural value. Originally recorded in 1232, it was a smaller church, possibly built of wood, dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Archaeologists have discovered that there are cemetery remains dating back to the early 11th century in the church area. The legendary first bishop of Finland, St. Henry, was initially buried in the Nousiainen Church and later moved to Turku Cathedral in the late 14th century. The existing stone church was built between 1420 and 1430 and is also dedicated to Saint Henry. Later named as a national architectural heritage.
