The Siuntio Church Village (Finnish: Siuntion kirkonkylä, Swedish: Sjundeå kyrkoby) is a rural village of the Siuntio municipality in Uusimaa, Finland. At the end of 2020, the village had 353 inhabitants.[1] The village was the former administrative center of the municipality before it was moved in the 1950s into the Siuntio Station Area, which grew larger in terms of population because of the Siuntio railway station.[2]
