Church or chapel
Räpina Church
German: Rappin
St Michael's church in Räpina was finished in 1785 in a blend of late baroque and early classicism, its fieldstone walls covered with plaster. The façade is decorated with allegorical statues of Hope and Faith from the same time, and the bell tower is baroque. Inside is a two-part altarpiece painted in 1871 by Carl Antropoff, showing the risen Christ appearing to Mary Magdalene and the burial of Jesus. In 1895–1896 a chapel of ease for the parish was built on the shore of Lake Peipus at Mehikoorma.

Räpina Miikaeli kirik valmis 1785. aastal hilisbaroki ja varaklassitsismi segustiilis, maakivimüürid kaeti krohviga. Esikülge kaunistavad samast ajast pärit allegoorilised skulptuurid Lootus ja Usk ning kellatorn on barokne. Kirikus on Carl Antropoffi 1871. aastal maalitud kaheosaline altarimaal „Ülestõusnu ilmumine Magdala Maarjale“ ja „Jeesuse haudapanek“. Aastatel 1895–1896 ehitati Peipsi kaldale Mehikoormasse koguduse abikirik.
