Pirkkala (Finnish: [ˈpirkːɑlɑ]; Swedish: Birkala) is a municipality in Finland, located in the Pirkanmaa region.
The former parish of Suur-Pirkkala (Great Pirkkala) is mentioned in historical writings from the 14th century.
In its year of completion, the church, which has a modern appearance, was chosen as the most beautiful new building in Finland.
The Sculpture Park has been formed near the municipal center from the works of art of the international cast iron symposia of 2001 and 2003.
The idea of the cast iron symposiums is Villu Jaanisoo, an artist from Pirkkala who moved from Estonia to Finland.
