  Kem (town) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kem (Russian: Кемь) is a historic town in the Republic of Karelia, Russia, located on the railroad leading from Petrozavodsk to Murmansk.
The town is located on the shores of the White Sea, where the Kem River enters it.
Kem was first mentioned as a demesne of the Novgorod posadnik Marfa Boretskaya in 1450, when she donated it to the Solovetsky Monastery (situated in the White Sea several kilometers off shore).
