New Valamo or New Valaam (Finnish: Uusi Valamo)


Lintula Holy Trinity Convent or Lintula Convent (Finnish: Lintulan Pyhän Kolminaisuuden luostari or Lintulan luostari) is a small Orthodox Christian convent located in Palokki, Heinävesi, Finland, close to the New Valamo Monastery. The monastery was founded in 1895 on the isthmus of Karelia, in the parish of Kivennapa. In 1946, the Convent moved to Heinävesi 


New Valamo or New Valaam (Finnish: Uusi Valamo) is an Orthodox monastery in Heinävesi, Finland. The monastery was established in 1940, when some 190 monks from Valaam Monastery in Karelia were evacuated from their old abode on a group of islands in Lake Laatokka (Ladoga) to Eastern Finland. The old (Valamo) Valaam Monastery was occupied by the armed forces of the Soviet Union quite soon after the outbreak of the Winter War.
