Church builders Killi and Nalli

Local nameKirkonrakentajat Killi ja Nalli
LocationRaisio, Finland

Church Builders Killi and Nalli is a public sculpture in Raisio, Finland. Created by the sculptor Harry Kivijärvi in red granite, it stands in the park area between Raisio City Hall and the Church of St. Martin.

The sculpture, which stylistically depicts two humanlike figures, is based on a folk song for the kantele, according to which the giants Killi and Nalli built the church in Raisio.

The sculpture is thus based on a local myth, that the giants built the church in Raisio 700 years ago.
