St. John's Church, Viljandi, Lutheran church in Viljandi, Estonia.
St. John's Church features a rectangular nave, a narrower chancel on the eastern side, and a tower embedded in the western facade.
The building originated as part of a Franciscan monastery constructed between 1466 and 1472, which was destroyed during the Livonian War in 1560.
Within the church, visitors discover stained glass windows by Renee Aua and wall carpets created by Estonian textile artist Professor Anu Raud.
The church, located at Pikk tn 6, opens Monday through Friday and Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, with free parking available for visitors.
The religious building now functions as a concert hall following its 1992 renovation, transforming from its previous use as a warehouse after 1950.
