This church was completed in 1950 and was one of the first churches built in Finland after the Second World War. It was designed by architect Jaakko Tähtinen and built largely with volunteer labour and donations. Its steep-roofed, practical style draws on medieval stone churches. The altarpiece, Christ on the Street of Viiala, was painted by Lennart Segerstråle in 1949, and the church seats about 400. The organ was built in 1989 by Hans Heinrich. Viiala was its own parish from 1927 to 2006 and now belongs to the local parish.
The parish hall connects directly to the church hall, and its wing was extended in 1982. The church has an induction loop, and there is step-free access from the parish hall side. The entrance, toilet and car park are wheelchair accessible.
