    The present church dates back to 1741 when the Russian Empress Elizabeth donated 8,000 rubles for the construction of a new church in Pärnu; hence the church was named after the Empress. Construction began in 1744 and the building was completed in 1747 under the direction of the master builder J. H. Güterbock from Riga. The church tower, however, was not completed until 1750.

      The church was consecrated in 1750 and is now also a pilgrimage church, as the crucifix adorned with shell symbols at the entrance reveals.

        Very old and dilapidated church currently undergoing extensive renovation.
