History
_-_Pehr_Adolf_Kruskopf_-_Finland_framst%C3%A4lldt_i_teckningar_-_101.jpg){kind=link}
The village was first mentioned in 1549, when it was a part of the parish (pitäjä) of Sysmä. Even though Rautalampi was a part of Tavastia, most of its settlers were Savonians who came to the area in the 16th century. The oldest documents (1552-1554) on Rautalampi only mention 22 Tavastian settlers in the area, while there were 57 Savonian settlers.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The parish (pitäjä) of Rautalampi was established in 1561. It was a large parish which included parts of 27 modern municipalities, most of them in the modern region of Central Finland.<ref name="Paikannimikirja" /><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Administratively Rautalampi was divided into three divisions (despite their amount, called "fourths"):
- Keitele, named after the lake Keitele, containing modern Viitasaari, Kivijärvi (incl. Kinnula and the Salamajärvi village in modern Perho<ref name="Paikannimikirja" />), Kannonkoski and Pihtipudas, as well as the villages of Särkisalo (now in Konnevesi) and Horontaipale (now in Vesanto) and most of Konginkangas
- Konnevesi, named after the lake Konnevesi, containing modern Rautalampi proper, Konnevesi, Hankasalmi, Vesanto, Keitele, part of Tervo and the Tavastian side of Pielavesi,
- Saraavesi, named after the lake Saraavesi, containing modern Laukaa (incl. Äänekoski+Suolahti), Sumiainen, Uurainen, Saarijärvi (incl. Pylkönmäki), Karstula (incl. Kyyjärvi) as well as most of Jyväskylä (incl. Toivakka) and Petäjävesi.
Not too long after the establishment of the parish, most likely in 1563, the divisions were renamed: Keitele became Kymi, Konnevesi became Rautalampi and Saraavesi became Pernasalo. The Kymi fourth was later renamed to Kivijärvi in 1617. The territories of the fourths did not change until the fourths were abolished entirely in 1684.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
The first ecclesiastical division of the Rautalampi parish happened when Laukaa became separate in 1628, while the last division was the separation of Konnevesi in 1919 (administratively slightly later in 1922).<ref name="Paikannimikirja">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
National park
Southern Konnevesi National Park was established in 2014. It is known for its prehistoric rock paintings.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
