In Finland many wooden churches were built in the 17^<th> and 18^<th> centuries. They are all comer-timbered buildings. The buildings, which I am interested in, have been built in the block-pillar style. Professor N. E. Wickwerg wrote in his book that the block-pillar style is very valuable from the architectural and artistic point of view. According to Wickberg, block-pillar churches were built only in the Bothnian area, mainly on the west coast of Finland. The corner-timbered building style was suitable for a normal house, but it was not originally suitable for the church with a large interior space. The block-pillar style solved this problem with a highly developed technique. It was constructed by block-pillars connected to beams and also A-shaped roof trusses. With this construction technique, the block-pillar style made long walls and high wooden vaults possible. I think that this technique was epoch-making advancement in the history of the Finnish wooden churches.
