Lintula Holy Trinity Convent, Orthodox convent in Palokki, Heinävesi, Finland
The white functionalist buildings of the convent complex house living quarters, a church, and workshops situated among forests and lakes.
Founded in 1939, the convent relocated from its original location in Karelia to Heinävesi due to the territorial changes following World War II.
The nuns maintain Orthodox traditions through religious services, icon painting, and the translation of spiritual literature into Finnish.
The convent welcomes visitors from June to August, with its shop and café operating daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The convent produces all ceremonial candles for the Orthodox Church of Finland, operating its workshop from October through April.
