History
Tyrnävä is a municipality of Finland and is unilingually Finnish. Tyrnävä initially belonged to the Saloinen parish and later to Liminka. Tyrnävä got the rights to the chapel as early as 1655. In 1766, it became a preaching house of Liminka parish, and became a chapel congregation in 1796. Tyrnävä's first church was completed in 1647, but it was already allowed to give way to a new church in 1664. That church burned down in 1865 and a new wooden church was built in its place in 1873.
