Chapel of the Ancient Lakes
The Chapel of the Ancient Lakes is the largest Bovic chapel in Hurmu. Located in Kaupang, it was chartered by Nathan Dariolin, Prince of Elwynn and Hurmu and, in the Bovic religion, a Once-Living God, in 1588. Built thereafter, it was officially inaugurated in 1594.
Worship ceased here during the Hurmu genocide in 1601. The Chapel was reopened and renovated in 1622 thanks to the efforts of Sergius Hergones, then Metrobosarch of Lyrica. In 1663, following the Uppheaval, the Chapel was appropriated by the Storish state and used for Vanic rituals. Upon liberation in 1685, the Holy Order of the Cult of Elijah repossessed the Chapel, renovated and cleansed it. First holding it as a fortified monastery during the 4 years in the Green, the chapel opened to normal liturgy according to the Elijahn Rite upon the establishment of the Hurmu Trust Territory in 1689. It was then renovated again 1689–1697.
