Ilumäe Chapel

In the early 1730s a little wooden chapel was put up at Ilumäe in Lahemaa, and some of its furnishings survive in today's chapel, which Carl Magnus von der Pahlen built on the same spot between 1814 and 1843. Inside hangs Carl Sigismund Walther's altar painting 'Christ on the Mount of Olives' of 1843. The Ilumäe Lutheran congregation still uses the chapel as its church.

Eesti keeles

1730. aastate algul püstitati Lahemaal Ilumäele väike puitkabel, mille sisustust on säilinud praeguses kabelis – selle ehitas samasse kohta Carl Magnus von der Pahlen aastatel 1814–1843. Kabelis on Carl Sigismund Waltheri 1843. aasta altarimaal „Kristus Õlimäel“. EELK Ilumäe kogudus kasutab kabelit endiselt kirikuna.
