This Lutheran church belongs to the parish and is dedicated as All Saints' Church. The brick building, designed by architect Pekka Pitkänen, was put into use on 4 November 1984. The main hall is a stylised octagon said to recall the Beatitudes of the Sermon on the Mount. It seats about 500 people, or about 550 when the side room is opened into the nave. The altar and floor slabs are Swedish limestone, with a 15th-century crucifix behind the altarpiece. The organ, by Bruno Christensen & Sønner of Denmark, has 31 stops.
The side room is used for small weddings and church coffee, and the building also has a chapel, courtyard, storage for the deceased and a family room. The rooms are mainly free of charge for church ceremonies, and concerts are held in the nave. The entrance and toilet are step-free, with an induction loop, defibrillator, baby changing room, play corner and pram space. Parking is in front of the parish hall and in the car park at the end of the road.
