Aune Krohn

Aune Krohn (6 March 1881 – 16 January 1967) was a Finnish evangelical Christian, writer and translator.

Her mother was the first headmistress of the first girls' school to use Finnish as its primary language.

The three sisters wrote and taught, but they were told that it was their role to support the male members of the family.

[3] In 1912, Krohn translated the words of the hymn "Nearer, My God, to Thee" into Finnish.

Krohn cared for her mother for twenty years and also for Liisa Tarvo who was ill with tuberculosis.
