Kõpu Church
Kõpu's St Peter's church in Viljandi county was built in 1821–1825, and in 1906 its original wooden tower was replaced in stone. Its organ by Guido Knauff, dated by different sources to the 1860s or 1882, is one of only three of his instruments surviving in Estonia, along with those in St Paul's in Viljandi and Kolga-Jaani; its restoration was completed in 2007. The church's textiles were designed and made by the artist Reet Talimaa.

Viljandimaal asuv Kõpu Peetri kirik ehitati aastatel 1821–1825 ja 1906. aastal asendati algne puust torn kivitorniga. Orelimeister Guido Knauffi orel, mis eri andmetel valmis 1860. aastatel või 1882. aastal, on üks kolmest Eestis säilinud tema pillist – ülejäänud on Viljandi Pauluse ja Kolga-Jaani kirikus; selle restaureerimine lõppes 2007. aastal. Kirikutekstiilid kavandas ja valmistas kunstnik Reet Talimaa.
