Pohjaslahti drying barn chapel

The building that is now the drying barn chapel was brought in as the drying barn of the Pohjaslahti parsonage. When the parsonage was sold in 2001, Vilppula parish retained ownership of the area of the drying barn and the rocks by the water. The old smoke drying barn was renovated with EU funding and with the help of volunteers to convert it into a drying barn chapel.
