Teisko church was completed in 1788, but it was inaugurated and taken into use in August 1787 while the construction work was still incomplete. This was necessary due to the poor condition of the previous church. The bell-tower was made ten years later by Åkerblom.
The basic form of the church is a cross with sloped inside angles. Of the many repairs performed on this wood-framed church, the overall look of the building has been most affected by the modification of the size and shape of its windows in 1842, as well as by the interior renovation work in 1906.
When Teisko joined the Tampere Federation of Evangelical Lutheran Parishes in 1972, the urban parishes were supplemented with a traditional rural parish. Located by Lake Kirkkojärvi and surrounded by a cemetery, the church forms a harmonious whole and an impressive monument to Finnish architecture and cultural scenery.
References:Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.
The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.
Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
