Prangli Church

The little wooden church of St Lawrence on Prangli island, in Lääneotsa village, was built at remarkable speed: work began on 8 June 1848, and on 10 August that year the first service was held in the newly finished chapel, dedicated to the Roman martyr Lawrence. It was thoroughly renovated in 1860, when an organ was installed. Inside hangs a chandelier with 34 candles, and the church is surrounded by the island's churchyard.

Eesti keeles

Prangli saarel Lääneotsa külas asuv väike puidust Laurentsiuse kirik ehitati imekiiresti: tööd algasid 8. juunil 1848 ja sama aasta 10. augustil peeti Rooma märtrile Laurentsiusele pühitsetud vastvalminud kabelis esimene jumalateenistus. 1860. aastal kabel renoveeriti põhjalikult ja paigaldati orel. Kirikus ripub 34 tulega kroonlühter ning seda ümbritseb saare kirikuaed.
