Description

The Pertteli Church was built probably between years 1500 and 1520 and was dedicated to St. Bartholomeus. First record of the local Uskela parish is from the 14th century and there has been at least one wooden church in Pertteli before. The original stone church was enlarged in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Finnish National Board of Antiquities has named the ancient road ("Hiidentie") and the church area as national built heritage.
