Jõelähtme Church, Medieval church in Jõelähtme Rural Municipality, Estonia.

The stone church features a substantial front tower constructed in 1910, replacing the original gable end tower after a destructive fire.

Established in the 14th century as a replacement for an earlier structure, the church was dedicated to Virgin Mary following medieval religious traditions.

The church maintains a Late Renaissance pulpit and a Baroque altar from 1670, representing different periods of religious craftsmanship in Estonia.

Visitors can contact the church administration at +372 603 3087 or joelahtme@eelk.ee to arrange visits and learn about service schedules.

The cemetery next to the church contains the final resting place of Gustav Heinrich Schüdlöffel, a pastor known for his literary contributions.
