At issue is a total of about two hectares of land, with forest and steep rock. The plot, located about 30 kilometers from Helsinki, has not only wonderful views, but also a very special history.

Mythologist By Ior Bock according to the stories, the so-called ancient Finnish temple of Lemminkäinen. The story of the temple has been passed down as a long-term guide to Suomenlinna in the Bock family, and according to Bock, who died in 2010, an immeasurably valuable treasure rests in its folds.

The hallmark of the place is a tall vertical stone slab between the rock cliff and the boulder. The Lemminkäinen temple is said to be located inside this large rock formation, or “Kyypelivuori”. According to the story, the entrance to the temple was closed in the 9th century.

This is what it looks like inside the rock.

Out of many despite efforts, the temple has not been found, nor has the treasure hidden inside it. Treasure seekers have flocked to Sipoo even from abroad. However, a thousand-year-old Iron Age ax head was found in a cave excavated in the rock last summer.

The age of the ancient ax head matched the story that the mouth of the temple was closed in 987.

The two-hectare area in Gumbostrand was sold by the Helsinki Ashtanga Yoga School, which suffered financial difficulties due to the corona years, and bought it at an auction in 2000.
