Naantalin Luostarikirkko (Naantali's Vallis Gratiae) Review
The convent Naantalin Luostarikirkko was founded in 1443 and completed in 1462. It housed both monks and nuns, and operated under the aegis of the Catholic church until it was dissolved by the Reformation in the 16th century. Buildings fell into disrepair, then were restored from 1963 to 1965. The church is all that remains of the convent.
