The church of Vimpeli was completed in 1807, but not inaugurated until 1811. The exterior of the wooden church is unique: it has twelve corners and looks like round church. The architect was Jacob Rifj, who was inspired of Pantheon temple in Rome. The interior is also interesting. The altarpiece was painted by R. W. Ekman in 1872.

The oldest parts of the present red-brick church are from the 1300s. In the late 1400s the church was enlarged to the appearance it has today. The church has been modified both internally and externally several times, among other things after the fires in 1699 and 1889. There are lot of well-preserved mural paintings in the walls.
