    The stone church, built in the 15th century and dedicated to the Holy Cross, is an architecturally rare Holy Cross church complex. Taivassalo Church is built on the large island of Kirkkosaari in the Archipelago Sea.

    Taivassalo's mother church had the following chapel parishes: Iniö (until 1911), Kustavi (until 1874), and Velkua (until 1913).

    The earliest of the church's abundant paintings date from the 15th century. A crucifix from the 14th century is among Finland's national treasures. The hero statue in front of the church, dedicated to those who fell in 1939–1944, is the work of artist Jussi Vikainen.
