Heinjoki

Heinjoki lies among the lakes and forests of the Karelian Isthmus, east of Vyborg. An old chapel stood on an island in Lake Kaltavesi, with a burial ground used by people of the district. A record from 1645 mentions a marriage celebrated at the chapel by the priest of Muolaa, to whose parish Heinjoki belonged. The island church site brought worshippers together across the water.
