Church of the Holy Spirit, Gothic church in Vanalinn, Estonia
The Church of the Holy Spirit features a white-washed exterior with an octagonal tower, crow-stepped gables, and large Gothic windows with stone dressing.
The church's inception dates to 1201, with its choir section representing the oldest part, followed by an aisle addition in the late 13th century.
The religious building marked a turning point by hosting the first Estonian language services, moving away from the traditional German-language worship practices.
Visitors can access the church from Monday to Saturday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with admission fees of 2 euros for adults.
The church houses a clock from the 17th century on its facade and contains an altar created by Berndt Notke in 1483.
