Pühalepa Church
Pühalepa kirik
A 13th-century stone church, the oldest building on Hiiumaa, with the legendary 'Devil's Stone' nearby.
Pühalepa Church was begun in the late 13th century and is the oldest stone building on Hiiumaa. Inside are the Stenbock family burial vault and a 17th-century pulpit. The churchyard and ancient stone walls are well preserved, and in the nearby fields stand the 'Devil's Stone' (Kuradi kivi) and several ancient cairns, whose legends involve giants and devils. It is open during the day in summer, admission is free, and it is next to Suuremõisa Manor, so the two can be visited together.
