    This stone church, one of three in the Martinseurakunta parish of Turku, is an important sanctuary for the islanders. A large fish catch in 1686 was taken as a sign to build one, and its proceeds started a building fund. Royal permits followed in 1693 and 1764, landowner Henrik Johan Krey backed the project, and islanders did the building work. It was consecrated in December 1769, though unfinished.

    It stands by a sea bay, seats 240 and hosts many summer weddings. It opens for events and by arrangement, and weddings and baptisms are booked through the booking service. There is a car park and a Föli bus link. Heavy doors and steps make access difficult, and there is no accessible toilet.
