In the 18th century, Tsar Peter the Great sent his personal physician to Karelia to study a mineral-rich water-spring known as Martsialnaya – a reference to Mars, the deity – and renowned for remedying a number of health issues. The Tsar then had three spa castles built on the spot, for himself and his family. It is now known that it is the presence of shungite that is perpetually enriching the region’s mineral waters that we visited.
