See photos (3) The Estonian Orthodox Church of Mary Magdalene is located on the Haapsalu Promenade. The family of the Russian Emperor Nicholas I attended the opening of the church in 1852. The church was restored to its present state and it is open as an Othodox place of worship in 2001. The church is open on Sundays from 9am to noon. To visit at other times, please contact us in advance. The church windows are decorated with stained glass by artist Dolores Hoffmann. The illustrator Ilon Wikland lived with her grandmother and grandfather in the church house during 1938-1944 at Linda 2.
By foot, when you arrive at the Castle Square in front of the Haapsalu Bishop’s Castle, you will be facing the Läänemaa Museum in the old town hall. From there, turn left and walk along Linda Street until to arrive at the church.
