[fi] muinaisen kirkon sakasti, Savon vanhin kivirakennus. Helppo
mikrokätkö. [en] sacristy of an ancient church, the oldest
remaining stone building in Savo region. Easy microcache.
[fi] Kivisakasti on rakennettu 1400-1500-lukujen taitteessa. Se
rakennettiin jälkikäteen puisen kirkon (rak. 1320-luvulla, purettu
v.1769) laajennusosaksi joka toimi sakaristona.
Sakasti restauroitiin vuonna 1900, jolloin se sai keskiajan
kivikirkkoja muistuttavat korkeat tiilipäädyt ja paanukaton sekä
kattoratsastajan.
Sakastiin on kerätty esineistöä ympäristön seurakunnista ja se
toimii Suur-Savon museoyhdistyksen hoitamana kirkkomuseona. Se on
Savon vanhin nykypäivään asti säilynyt kivirakennus.
[en] The building known as Kivisakasti (stone sacristy) is built at
the end of 1400's or beginning of 1500's as the extension of a
wooden church (built in the 1320's dismantled 1769). It is the
oldest remaining building in Savo region.
The building was restored in 1900, when it received its tall brick
gables, its shingle roof and a small steeple similar to those of
stone churches from the Middle Ages.
It is used as church museum and is open for public in summertime.
