Järva-Peetri Church, Medieval church in Peetri, Estonia.

The Järva-Peetri Church features a high triumphal arch and represents the largest three-nave hall-church construction in Järva County, Estonia.

Built by the Livonian Order during the second quarter of the 14th century, this Lutheran church stands as a testament to medieval religious architecture.

The church interior contains notable artworks, including an altar painting by C. Greger, two 17th-century crucifixes, and a collection of 16th-century graves.

Located at Kesktee 16 in Peetri, visitors can contact +372 5141486 for access, with the church operating as a road church during summer months.
