Pühtitsa Convent

Pühtitsa Convent

This beautiful 19th-century nunnery has something to offer ascetics and those who like to spin a good after dinner yarn. The first group will appreciate the strict vegetarian diet and the daily religious services. The latter will enjoy staying overnight in the convent dormitories and bragging about ’sleeping with 80 nuns and novices’. The merely hopeful might be cheered by the fact that the convent is on the site of ancient pagan worship.

Thousands of pilgrims make the trek each year to the Russian Orthodox convent, which is located in the village of Kuremäe in north-eastern Estonia. One bus runs daily between Kuremäe and Tallinn.
