    Built in the architectural tradition of historicism according to the project of the engineer Heinrich Carl Scheel (1828-1909). The church was consecrated in 1897 and it was the first stone building of the Kemeri resort. The building with stained-glass windows is an architectural monument of national significance.

      The Ķemeru Evangelical Lutheran Church, built in 1897, stands as an impressive monument of neo-Gothic architecture and is also the first stone structure in Ķemeri. Designed by Heinrich Scheel, a renowned German-Baltic architect, this building symbolizes Ķemeri's transition to a thriving health resort. The brick facade and high arched windows give the church a simple, almost aloof elegance that contrasts with its natural surroundings.

      The church has withstood all political changes over the decades - a sign of permanence in a place itself known for peace and healing. In addition to the architecture, it is worth taking a look inside, especially the play of light through the windows.
