Nõmme Peace Church
Nõmme's Peace Church began life as a factory: Nikolai von Glehn, founder of Nõmme, built it in 1901 to house a foundry. When the foundry went bankrupt in 1904, the building was given to the Moravian Brethren, Lutheran services were held from 1905, and in 1913 Glehn donated it to the congregation. A tower was added in 1918. In 1924 pastor Anton Eilart proposed making it a memorial church for the Tartu Peace Treaty of 2 February 1920 with Soviet Russia, and on 30 March 1924 it was named the Peace Church. Its organ, built by Ernst Kessler in 1844, came from the Moravian prayer house at Võnnu.

Eesti keeles
Nõmme Rahu kirik sai alguse tööstushoonena: Nõmme rajaja Nikolai von Glehn ehitas selle 1901. aastal valukojaks. Kui valukoda 1904. aastal pankrotti läks, anti hoone vennastekogudusele, 1905. aastast peeti seal luterlikke jumalateenistusi ja 1913. aastal kinkis Glehn hoone kogudusele. 1918. aastal lisati torn. 1924. aastal tegi õpetaja Anton Eilart ettepaneku muuta see 2. veebruari 1920 Tartu rahulepingu mälestuskirikuks ja 30. märtsil 1924 sai see Rahu kiriku nime. Selle Ernst Kessleri 1844. aastal ehitatud orel toodi Võnnu vennastekoguduse palvemajast.
