Kihniö Church

In 1939, the first organ was purchased for the church from the Kangasala organ factory. The current organ was purchased in 1984 from Tuomi organ factory from Sotkamo.

The church's altarpiece was painted by Germund Paaer, a versatile artist born in the region. The altarpiece is called I stand behind the door and knock.

There are two statues on the graveyard. The first one is from year 1918 in memory of those who fell in the war. The second statue was carved in the early 1950s in memory of those who fell during the last wars. The statue was sculpted by Unto Hietanen from Tampere.
