Lonely Planet review for Suomen Ortodoksinen Kirkkomuseo

A fascinating, well-presented display, the Orthodox Church Museum holds collections brought here from monasteries, churches and tsasounas in occupied Karelia. Today it’s the most notable collection of eastern Orthodox icons, textiles and religious objects outside Russia. The oldest artefacts date from the 10th century. There are summer exhibitions on particular aspects of Orthodox art or symbolism.
