| Toksovo is picturesque place on Karelian isthmus about 30 km from Petersburg. It is named Russian Switzerland thanks to numerous hills and lakes. Before World War II Toksovo was centre of Ingermanland Finns. Lutheran church was built in 1887. It was closed in 1936 and only in 1994 church was opened again. |
