Pennala (Finnish pronunciation: [ˈpenːɑlɑ]) is a village in the northern part of the Orimattila municipality in Päijänne Tavastia, Finland, located about 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) south of Lahti.

Pennala is believed to have been formed at the end of the 15th century, as two houses are mentioned in the land register of 1539.

[4] After this, Knaapila was divided between the inheriting brothers, which formed Mattila and Peltola, the village's remaining homesteads today.

[5] The village's services include a primary school,[6] a kindergarten,[7] a kiosk,[8] and a volunteer fire department.
