二、自然地理

1.地理条件

The bedrock of Alajärvi is quite varied in rock composition. The main rock types are granite, mica gneiss, amphibolite, uralite porphyrite, pegmatite granite, quartz and granodiorite, and palgioclase gneiss. There is a nearly ten-kilometer-long limestone zone on the border with Pennant. The deposit is mainly gray dolomite lime, which is excellent for agricultural lime. However, the bedrock rarely protrudes beneath the soil types.

The most common soil type is the moraine, which is very fertile in some places in the area of Lehtimäki village. The only ridge section in the city is the intermittent Lehtimäenharju from the southern shore of Lake Lappajärvi to Töysä. On the shores of lakes and rivers, there are extensive sand and loam clay in places. There is a lot of peat, especially in the eastern part of the city. Surface shapes vary.

Other elevations that rise to a height of more than 150 meters and stand out clearly from their surroundings are e.g. Teerinevankallio and Snake Rock. Towards the west, the terrain decreases, but does not become the actual expanse of Ostrobothnia. The landscapes are brought about by varied shallows and lowland valleys. To the south of Lappajärvi rises the Pyhävuori, the well-known lookout point in the Lake District, which rises 151 meters above sea level and 82 meters above Lappajärvi.

Another important site is the Kellaripuro brook grove near Pyhävuori.

The main lakes in the city are Ähtärinjärvi and the shallow Alajärvi, where the Kuninkaan and Levijoki rivers flow. Alajärvi discharges its water through the Kurejoki to Lappajärvi, from which Alajärvi has only a narrow strip of shore. Savonjoki flows into Lake Lappajärvi via Vimpel, whose tributaries include the Paaluoma and Poikkijoki rivers. The smaller lakes are Iiruunjärvi and Ojajärvi and Kaartusenjärvi.

六、历史文化

1.历史

The settlement of the Alajärvi region is very old. Suomusjärvi's cultural residences have been found especially in the Kurejoki-Koskenvarre area. Tuluskivi has been found along Soukanpuro and perforated stones have been found on the shores of Lake Verijärvi, among other places. In addition, scattered gutter chisel finds have been made. The earliest settlements were located in estuaries by the sea, although today they are far inland from the effects of land uplift. The occupation of the inhabitants was mainly fishing and hunting, which is also shown by the decorated ball float found in the area. Finds from the Bronze and Iron Ages include a bronze dagger and iron arrowheads found in the area of the village of Lehtimäki.

In the Middle Ages, deserters from Satakunta and Häme arrived in the Alajärvi region. The area was also visited by the popular Pirkkala wilderness route through Näsijärvi and Ähtärinreiti along the Ähtäväjoki River all the way to the shores of the Gulf of Bothnia. Gradually, the Swedes who settled on the coast of Ostrobothnia also began to move along the Ähtäväjoki valley to the surroundings of Lake Lappajärvi. In Alajärvi, the Swedish population cleared their habitats on the shores of lakes and rivers, mainly on the shores of Alajärvi and Kurejoki. At the beginning of the new era, a new phase began in the settlement of Alajärvi, as in the entire Lake District. The flow of Savonian settlers was directed to the area from 1560.

Ecclesiastically, the Alajärvi region initially belonged to a very large Pietarsaari parish. From the upper part of the parish church, the Lappajärvi chapel parish was formed in 1637, to which Alajärvi also belonged. In 1751 Alajärvi became a chapel parish and in 1859 an independent parish. Soini and Lehtimäki, formed into Alajärvi chapels, were separated into independent parishes in 1895 and 1904.

2. 文化

The first church in Alajärvi parish was built of wood by Antti Hakola in 1749. The church still has a tap-like bell tower still in use today. The current wooden church was built between 1836 and 1842 according to drawings made in the curatorial office. The builder was Jaakko Kuorikoski from Kaustis. Lehtimäki Church was built by the well-known church builder Jakob Rijf in 1791–1800.

In the 1980s, Alajärvi's parish was renamed cheese dew, a dish fried in a pan made of pork and cheese, which is often eaten with a sandwich.

七、其他信息

One important reason for the increase in population was the economic boom brought by tar burning. After the Peace of Uusikaupunki in 1721, tar burning was concentrated in Ostrobothnia, with the exception of a few small islands in southern Finland. When tar burning in the Lapua and Kyröjoki areas gradually subsided, the opposite happened in the Ähtäväjoki region. Tar burning was an important factor in the birth of many villages in the 19th century. Agriculture also progressed, including the numbering of numerous lakes to obtain new arable land. Agriculture continued to develop in the 20th century, with the number of farms growing from six hundred to 1,000 in 1900-1950. In order to develop agriculture, a country school was established in Kurejoki in 1926. The Alajärvi Youth Club, founded in 1896, also grew to be a significant influence.

The well-known architect Alvar Aalto made his first design in Alajärvi in 1918. He remained connected throughout his life to the city and in 1966 he projected the new building of the town hall. It is also the birthplace of the painter Eero Nelimarkka.

The city's largest lake is Alajärvi, which belongs to the Ähtäväjoki watershed, on the shore of which the city's city center is located. Alajärvi is also known for the Sports Association Alajärvi Anchor.
