Koroinen

It is located to the north of the city centre, across the river Aura from the Turku Student Village.

[1] Koroinen was the residence of Bishop of Finland until 1300 when it was moved a couple of kilometres further down the River Aura, to the present-day Cathedral of Turku.

The exact time when the bishop moved to Koroinen is not known, but that probably took place soon after the Second Swedish Crusade in 1249.

[citation needed] The church in Koroinen was later destroyed by the Victual Brothers in 1396.

There is a white, wooden memorial cross and some stone foundations still remaining on site.
