Good location for a church, no new buildings nearby. The oak is handsome.

There are five pairs of lancet windows on both sides of the central hall. Interior: flat plastered ceiling, in the eastern part of the building there is an altar cabinet. In the churchyard there is a sacred oak of the ancient Estonians - the famous Vara Oak (“vara tamm”), 24 m high and 4.2 m in circumference (early 2nd century). Near the church there is a monument to those who fell in the War of Independence (1925, restored in 1988), in the cemetery there is a mass grave of those who fell during the Second World War.
