    Hiking

    When entering the church, certain dress codes must be observed, and photography is prohibited!
    The Pühtitsa nunnery was built in 1891 in the center of Kuremäe (German: Püchtitz). It is the only Russian Orthodox nunnery in operation in Estonia. In the old days, this was a holy place for Estonians, as a so-called sacrificial spring rises under the mountain. The spring water is still said to have healing properties today. You can also bathe in its refreshing water if you wish.
