Kirkkopuisto (Church Park) is one of the oldest parks in Jyväskylä. Its construction began in the early 1800s. Kirkkopuisto was a market area during the founding of the city in 1837. The marketplace was located in the current Kirkkopuisto from the 1830s until the 1930s. Jyväskylä City Church was built in the middle of the then market square in 1880, becoming the first stone church in the Jyväskylä Region. The church was designed by architect L.I. Lindqvist.
