Kiikka was originally a part of Tyrvää, Turku and Pori Province, which was one of the 10 original sockens of the historical province of Satakunta. The parish of Kiikka was established in 1662, but the first church was built in the 15th century.[2] The present Kiikka Church was completed in 1807. The Kiikka railway station by the Tampere–Pori railway was opened in 1895 and closed in 1987.[3]
