Keila Church, Medieval church in Keila, Estonia

The church features a massive west tower, three-sided chancel ending, and a two-aisled layout with stone vaults dating from 1489.

Built in 1280 as a square chapel during Danish rule, the church expanded throughout the 14th and 15th centuries with additions of vaults and portals.

The church maintains its position as the principal religious structure in Harju County, representing Estonian medieval architectural traditions and Lutheran practices.

Located at Paldiski maantee 2 in Keila, the church stands 25 kilometers southwest of Tallinn and remains open for religious services and visitors.

The structure contains fragments of medieval wall paintings in its chancel, with surviving decorative elements from its initial 13th-century construction period.
