The Lutheran church of Häädemeeste was completed in 1884, only couple of years later than the Häädemeeste Orthodox church. The head of building project was Reinhold Stael von Holstein, the owner of Uulu manor.
The nature stone church in historicist-eclectic style is enlivened by red brick details and two rows of windows with sharp arches on the upper ones and segmented arches on the lower. The altarpiece is painted by Englishman Allan Ramsay in 1881.

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
