History
Säkylä is located on the shore of Lake Pyhäjärvi in Säkylä and is therefore the second largest lake municipality in Finland. The municipality of Köyliö was merged to Säkylä on 1 January 2016. The municipality is unilingually Finnish. The municipality of Säkylä was founded in 1869. Säkylä is known to have had its own church at least as early as 1455. According to the land register of 1540, there were 19 homes in the village of Ison-Säkylä, 11 in the village of Vähän-Säkylä, and a total of 16 in the villages of Korve and Pyhäjoki. Säkylä was originally Eura's chapel parish and it became independent as its own parish in 1639. The current wooden church in Säkylä was completed in 1777.

The oldest keepers of Satakunta are mentioned as the parent parish in 1392. After the separation of Alastaro and Vampula in 1481, Säkylä was incorporated into the chapel of Eura. It became an independent parish again in 1639.

- Lightning burned the church with its vicarage on 25/8 1773. Part of the archive must also have been destroyed. [O. Durchman: The destruction of church archives, and supplement II. Genos 3(1932). Supplement VII. Genos 6(1935)]
