The Orthodox Church Museum of Finland
The museum houses one of the most beautiful icon collections in the western world, precious gold and silver objects, and lavishly embroidered church textiles. The artefacts saved from Karelian monasteries left on Russian territory after WW II testify to the rich cultural heritage of the Orthodox Church.
