It was replaced with a wooden church, that burnt down by Russian forces in 1703 during Great Northern War. In 1730s a small church was erected, that was replaced with a stone church build between 1767 to 1786. Church tower was built exceptionally to the southern side of the church to bond the church with the market square into an one architectural ensemble.〔 There was a fire in church in May 10, 1845. A large fundraising was set up to pay for restoration works.〔 During 1909–1910 church went under larger reconstruction.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paide Church」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
