History

Angelniemi was originally a farm named Angela within the village of Päärnäspää. The name Angela is derived from the dialectal word angelma meaning "Filipendula sp." (standard Finnish angervo). A village by that name has existed at least since 1540, when it was mentioned as Anghela and a part of the Halikko parish.

Angelniemi became a chapel community in 1659 and was called Korpi. The name Angelniemi for the parish appears in 1692, but it was also called Päärnäspää since the church was located in the village of Päärnäspää. The name Angelniemi became the dominant name because its first chaplain, Petrus Gregorii, started using Angelnius as his surname. The names Korpi and Päärnäspää were still occasionally used for the parish until the late 18th century. The names Korvinen, Andelma and Angela were also occasionally used for the parish.

The Angelniemi church was built in 1772-1774 by Matti Åkerblom. Today, the church and the peninsula it is on are classified as a built-up cultural environment of national significance. Angelniemi became a separate municipality and parish in 1916.

Angelniemi became a part of Halikko again in 1967. Halikko was consolidated with Salo in 2009.
