Lammi Church

Lammi Church is a medieval Lutheran church dedicated to St. Catherine, built between 1490 and 15103. Until 1918 the interior of the church was made of wood. The wooden church was destroyed by a fire on April 29, 1918, during the Finnish Civil War. The pulpit, most of the archives and the bell tower were destroyed, leaving only the grey stone foundations. The reconstruction of the church and bell tower was designed by Usko Nyström (1861-1925).

Hollola Church

The medieval church of Hollola was built between 1495 and 1510, first the sacristy in 1495, the nave in 1500 and the entrance in 1505. The church was struck by lightning and burnt down in 1642. While repairing the damage caused by the fire, the church also began to be transformed according to the requirements of the Protestant Reformation. The church was renovated in 1934-1935 according to the plans of Carolus Lindberg. The last renovation was carried out in 2005-2006.

Hauho Church, or St. John's Church, is a grey stone probably built in the early 16th century. The present sacristy was built in brick to replace the old medieval sacristy in 1783-1784. The rather narrow interior is divided into three naves, the middle one is star vaulted and the outermost ones partly star vaulted and partly cross-vaulted.
