The Church of St. Lawrence is a church in Vantaa dating back to 1450. It is the oldest building in Vantaa. The Helsingin pitäjä district is one of the best-preserved historical parishes in Finland. There are many old houses around the church area. The medieval church was badly destroyed in a fire in 1893, after which it was reconstructed in a Gothic Revival style. The church got Neo-Gothic style tapered windows, pulpit, benches, galleries, and a copper roof. The church is a very popular wedding church and venue for concerts.
