Temple of Lemminkäinen

The Temple of Lemminkäinen (Finnish: Lemminkäisen temppeli) is a cave in the village of Gumbostrand,[1] located in Sipoo, Finland.

[1] According to Bock, the entrance to the temple was closed in 987, when Christianity arrived in Uusimaa and pagan sites had to be hidden.

The Finnish Heritage Agency characterises the site as a natural formation and does not believe that anything of archaeological significance can be found there.

[6] Marcus Lundqvist, a member of the Tempelberg Association, has found an ax blade at the bottom of the excavated cave, which, according to the Finnish Heritage Agency, may date from the 12th century.

Carl Borgen, who has published several books about Bock's claims,[9][10] stated that a group of treasure hunters known as the "Temple Twelve" would continue to dig in the summer of 2022.
