Английская Википедия:Degerby Church
Шаблон:Infobox church The Degerby Church (Шаблон:Lang-sv; Шаблон:Lang-fi) is the 20th-century church located in the village of Degerby in the Ingå municipality in Uusimaa, Finland. The Empire-style church was designed by Шаблон:Ill and it was completed in 1932.[1][2]
After World War II, the church was part of the Porkkala area, which was leased to the Soviet Union until 1956.[3] The church was rededicated in 1958, when the area was returned to Finland.[2] Although 10 million Finnish markkas were spent on the church's repair work, it was preserved from destruction because it was actively used by Russian soldiers as a saloon and cinema.[1] The golden cross in the church tower was lost during the lease period, but a new one was added finally in 2018.[4]
The church's 9-tone mechanical Walker pipe organ was acquired in 1965.[2][5]
