Rinda Lutheran church

Present stone building of Rinda Lutheran church was built in 1833-1835. It was done in command of Baron Karl Otto von Baer. It is stone building which has quarried stones used for walls and red bricks used for corners – in church architecture of Kurzeme these materials are not commonly used. The entrance of the church is accentuated by thin tower, which was built in 1904, and little pyramid-like towers in corners of the building. The church was consecrated on November 10th, 1877. Unfortunately names of wood-carving masters and carpenters are unknown. In 1877 the church was enlarged by 1/3. Now it has 400 seats.
