Nakkila Church is a Functionalist Lutheran church in Nakkila, Finland, completed in 1937 to designs by the architect Erkki Huttunen. It was built beside a wooden church of 1764, which was later demolished, and was financed by the bequest of local businessman J. W. Suominen, who is buried in a crypt beneath it. Its modernist interior has a wooden crucifix instead of an altarpiece, and it is considered one of the most significant Modernist churches in Finland.
