PORVOO VICARAGE HILL
OFFICIAL CONTACT FORM

The Vicarage Hill is as old as Porvoo and its farms and huts are densely inhabited. The oldest part of the vicarage hill, its real core, is an interconnection of larger and smaller buildings erected without the remotest idea of ​​any building order. They have been built as the best fit for the individual, skirted to the bit here or an outbuilding there, often right in front of the neighbour’s nose. The result has been a chaos, whose strange roads and paths are well known to each vicar who serves the towns people.

The people who live “up there” on the Vicarage Hill are for the most part poor, yet content, striving and accommodating. Much of the old-fashioned virtuous attributes such as honesty, fairness and sincerity, despite the new age, still stubbornly hold on in the low old huts with their tanned four-pane windows. Such is a good life! 

And today a “ new” Vicarage Hill is growing up. If you walk along the old country road to the hill at the folk school you will see several new buildings, all of which have emerged in recent years and further to the left of the country road, especially along the Castle Street, you will see one pretty building after another.
