Babīte St Anne’s Lutheran Church
A Lutheran church and a branch of St John’s Church in Piņķi, designated as an architectural monument of national importance. The church’s history dates back to around 1660, when the first St Anne’s Church was built. It was typical of a 17th-century rural wooden church in Vidzeme: a simple single-room structure made of interlocking logs on a masonry foundation, with a tiled roof and a small wooden tower. St Anne’s Church was intended for services for Latvian serfs and was later regarded as a branch of St Nicholas’ Church. Construction of the present masonry church began in 1872. It was designed by Johann Daniel Felsko, the first City Architect of Riga. The church’s former bell is believed to have been made in Sweden, as its inscription was in Swedish.
