KAJAANI EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH

KAJAANI EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH The church represents the most decorative Neo-Gothic style of the late 19th century. Kajaani church was built in 1897. The wooden church with its rich decorations was designed by Jacob Ahrenberg. The so-called carpenter-style was used on inner structures and the roof trusses were copied from the ones in London Westminster Hall while the placement of the church tower off the middle axis of the chamber was of German influence. The slender tower carries a hint of the Italian Renaissance and Baroque touches.
