The Ārciems Church Bell Tower is a contemporary architectural landmark created at the historic site of the Ārciems Open-Air Evangelical Lutheran Church in Latvia. Designed as a symbolic home for the church bell, the tower restores an important element of the site’s cultural and spiritual identity. Built in honor of Pastor Juris Neikens’ 200th anniversary and the church bell’s 100th anniversary, the project combines history, community memory, and contemporary architecture, creating a place for reflection, gathering, and cultural continuity.
