"The altarpiece depicts Jesus in Gethsemane and was painted in 1841 by Professor P.E. Limnell from Stockholm.
There is a hero grave area in the churchyard, where 165 Winter War and Continuation War hero warriors are buried. The memorial stone is designed by architect Bertil Strömmer. The memorial stone "The Book of Life" to the deceased remains of Karelia was erected in the churchyard in 1961. The church museum contains old parish objects."
