St. Henry's Church of Velkua

Built on the island of Palva in 1793, the church dedicated to St. Henry has been the scene of many interesting events in its history. During the Battle of Palva in 1808, Russian soldiers looted the church, taking everything except the altarpiece. Besides religious and festive services, the church also hosts concerts of Naantali Music Festivals. The church is open to groups by agreement. Ask for a guided tour in the church from Visit Naantali.
