St. George’s Church in Jüri

A pseudi-Gothic church (architect Friedrich Axel von Howen) built on a mediaeval foundation. The interior reflects the colours of the Estonian flag. A very old church bell is the oldest of Harju county. A wheel cross on the buttress, unique stone crosses and a memorial (1989) to the first Estonian Bible in the churchyard.

The present-day Neo-Gothic building of St. George’s Lutheran Church in Jüri was consecrated in 1885.
