History

First permanent inhabitants settled in Kempele area approximately 500 years ago at that time coast line was closer than what it is today. Kempele was part of Greater Liminka and consisted only of three houses in 1568 when the area was called as Kempele first time in official context. Full church privileges were granted to Kempele in 1774, which also meant separation from Liminka. Municipality administration was established in 1867.

The old wooden church of Kempele, which was built in late 17th century, is one of the oldest wooden churches in Finland. Originally Kempele was granted rights to build up a praying room in 1688, but local parishioners decided to construct a church with steeple. As it was typical at that time to bury local notable persons under the church building, also in Kempele there are approximately 150 graves last of them from 1796. double ended dildo

Even though the old church is not anymore in active use after the new one was build next to it in 1990s, some activities are still kept in there.

Kempele may be best known, however, for being the headquarters of the world-famous heart rate monitor corporation, Polar Electro, which first innovated this product in 1978.
