==2016 fire== On the morning of 1 May 2016, Pascha (Orthodox Easter Sunday), a blaze covering 800 square metres erupted on the monastery's property, inside the “Winter Hotel", a national heritage site constructed in the 1850s. Belonging to the Valaam monastery, the building is located immediately adjacent to the monastery's main cathedral. Emergency services reported no casualties from the incident.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2017-06-24 |title=Asking for help! |url=http://valaam.org/ |access-date=2025-03-13 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170624110459/http://valaam.org/ |archive-date=24 June 2017 }}</ref> <gallery mode="packed" heights="150px"> File:Валаам.
