Eliisabet's Church in Pärnu
Eliisabet's Church, inaugurated in 1750, is the most outstanding sacral building of the Baroque period in Estonia. The beautiful church in the centre of Pärnu invites you to step in and look around to see a pulpit in the Neo-Gothic style from the middle of the 19th century, the altar and the altarpiece “Resurrection”. One of the best organs in Estonia is in Eliisabet's Church and the place is popular as a concert hall among music lovers.
Interesting to know! The church got its name from Russian Empress Jelizaveta thanks to whom the congregation got a Lutheran church.

Nice architectural church in Pärnu town
We passed by this church when walking around Pärnu town near the visitors information centre. It is surrounded by many restaurants around it. It stands out from a distance due to the tall structure...

Beautiful exterior beckons
Like so many Estonian churches, Eliisabet's is grand and beautiful on the outside and yet modest and warm on the inside. Worth a visit and it's in the centre of town.
