Very cozy church ? Located in the village of Karleby. There is a really nice calm and acoustic in the church. The cemetery is very nice and fits very well. Everything looks very nice. The pastor associated with the church is absolutely wonderful. She meets everyone with an open mind and she listens to everyone around her ?

Danmark Church

The first written record of church in Danmark locality date back to the year 1291. Close to the church are several stones with a Christian text and cross inscribed. 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.
