Aizpute Baptist Parish was founded in 1869, its first priest, later also Latvian Baptist Parish bishop – Ādams Gertners was later kept in a prison in Aizpute and also in Kuldīga.
The first church building was built in 1884, but after 8 years in 1892, with the pretense, that the Baptist church is too close to the Orthodox Church building, the tsar administration demand to take down the church building.

In 1893 the Parish made the decision to buy a piece of land in Kuldīgas street 17, for 750 roubles. And in the same year, a second church building is built. The parish used this building until 1937 march 21st when on Passion Sunday the church burns down in a fire. Then it was decided to start gathering materials for a new church building. The parish builds its third church building after the Baltic German’s Aleksandra Šmēlinga project in 11 months. In Christmas of  1939, it is blessed. The parish hasn’t stopped its actions either during the 1st or 2nd World War. From 1949 till 1990 Aizpute Seventh-day Adventist parish also holds its public worships in these rooms since the Soviet authority had taken away rooms to meet from them.
