Savvusann
Heat a Võro smoke sauna in your browser.
In Võromaa, in southeast Estonia, smoke saunas are still heated the old way: no chimney, a fire that burns for hours, and smoke let out just before the first steam. The tradition has been on UNESCO’s list of intangible cultural heritage since 2014. Savvusann gives you one evening by the pond to heat a sauna yourself, picking up words in Võro, Estonian and Finnish as you go.
