On the shore of Ladoga Lake, the city of Sortavala has been standing for three and a half centuries, which until 1918 was called Serdobol. The city was preceded by the Nikolsko-Serdobolsky churchyard. In 1990, Sortavala was included in the list of historical cities in Russia. An important role in the development of the city was played by the pilgrimage of Russian travelers and pilgrims who aspired to Valaam. The pristine beauty of the Ladoga coast attracted the attention of artists, poets, composers.
