Nummi church is a neoclassical greystone church built in 1822. The church is built in the form of a cross with a tall bell tower on the eastern side of the church. The blueprints were made by A. N. Edelcrantz in the Royal Intendant Office in Stockholm in 1807. It’s likely that Nummi had a small village church made of wood in the 16th century. In the 17th century Nummi had for certain an own wooden church which was called the Chapel of St. Jacob.

It’s natural that this large stone church was built in Nummi, which was known for then being a wealthy village in the middle of good road and water connections by the beautiful lake Pitkäjärvi.

Verses from the Bible are written on top of all the main doors leading to the church.

Altogether 850 people fit inside Nummi church making it the largest church in Lohja parish by the number of seats.

Part of the nationwide road church network.
