The Nokia Church is a 19th-century stone church in Nokia, Finland, completed in 1837 and designed by the renowned architect Carl Ludvig Engel in the Neoclassical style. The building's circular hall and dome, which extends over the entire interior space, take the Pantheon of Rome as their model. The church underwent restoration in 1973–1974, during which a 32-tone pipe organ manufactured by Kangasala's organ factory was installed. A further renovation in 1996 renewed the limestone floor. The altarpiece, depicting The Crucifixion of Christ, was painted by Felix Frang in 1907. The church is a protected heritage building.
