凿穴为“谱”，为上帝演奏

Burrow for notation, play for god

作为北欧五国之一，芬兰有着特殊的民族文化，低调而内敛。西苏精神与芬兰设计相结合，造就了不少芬兰神话。不同于其他以砖石或木结构为基础的教堂，岩石教堂在当地甚至在全世界，都是独一无二的存在。

As one of the five Nordic countries, Finland has a special national culture, low profiled and introverted. The combination of Sisu spirit and Finnish design has created many Finnish myths. Unlike other churches based on brick and stone or wood structures, rock church is unique in the local area and even in the world.

岩石教堂远观，view in distance

看向教堂穹顶，view of the dome

起初在修建教堂前，由于周边没有合适用地，只剩一块岩石小山丘。有人提议炸平岩石修建教堂，也有人提议保留环境现状，设计方案引来各种争议。最后，来自霍格兰的兄弟建筑师，蒂莫·索马莱宁和图奥莫·索马莱宁的设计方案脱颖而出。或许两人从小就生长在一个遍布石崖洞窟的环境中，这种崇尚自然设计理念早已深入了设计师的潜意识中。

Before building the church, there was only a small rocky hill, and no other suitable lands around. Proposals ranging from blasting the rock to build the church to preserving the status quo have attracted controversy. In the end, two architect brothers Timo Suomalainen and Tuomo Suomalainen from Hoagland stood out. Maybe because they grew up in an environment that was full of rock cliff caves, the concept of advocating natural design has long been deep in their subconscious.

教堂采用直接在岩石中，向下开凿，掏空岩石内部而成。从外部看，教堂比周围的建筑都要低矮一大截。教堂内四周的墙身保留了开凿石块后原有的肌理与施工痕迹。

The church is made by cutting directly into the rock and hollowing out the inside of the rock. From the outside, the church is much lower than the surrounding buildings. The walls inside and around the church retain the original texture and traces of construction from the stone cutting.

墙上挂着由3001根管子组成的管风琴，演出时发出的声音能与四周的岩石产生共振的回音效果。教堂的穹顶是由22公里的铜条盘绕而成，直径为24米的圆。并由100根放射状钢筋混凝土梁与岩石壁上的碎石相连接，混凝土梁之间用玻璃封堵，从下往上看，仿佛穹顶漂浮在空中。

A pipe organ made up of 3,001 pipes hung on the wall, producing a sound that resonates with the surrounding rocks. The dome of the church is a 24 meters diameter circle witch is made up of 22 kilometers of coiled copper strips. It is connected by 100 radial reinforced concrete beams with rubble on the rock walls, which are blocked by glass, as if the dome is floating in the air from below.

岩壁上的碎石是施工时炸碎的岩石堆砌而成，每块石头都进行精心挑选，下雨或者融雪时，水滴会从岩石缝中渗出，顺着岩壁流入地下的排水，整体设计都体现着芬兰人崇尚自然的古朴审美。教堂内的祭坛位置，经过精心计算，在夏季做礼拜时，阳光会透过天窗，洒到祭坛上，让教堂显得更加神圣。

The rubble on the rock face is a pile of rocks that were blown up during construction. Each stone is carefully selected. When it rains or melts snow, water droplets will seep out of the cracks in the rock and flow down the rock into the ground for drainage. The overall design reflects the primitive aesthetics of Finns who admire nature. The location of the altar in the church has been carefully calculated so that during summer services, sunlight will shine on the altar through the skylight, making the church more sacred.
