Nyen or Nyenschantz (Finnish: Nevanlinna, Russian: Ниеншанц, although generally known in the 17th century as Канцы) was a Swedish fortress built in 1611 at the mouth of the Neva river in Swedish Ingria.
"Nyen" was properly Swedish for the Neva river, and officially the fortress was always known as Nyenskans, even though the concepts were in flux in common parlance.
Nothing remains of Nyen above ground (with the land being used for industrial development), but on June 15, 2000 a monument was opened on the site of the fortress, at the mouth of the Okhta river to a design by V. Reppo.

They also spoke about the causes of nyen diseases, namely that immoral behaviour and unhealthy habits would get worse and worse as time proceeded; ethical behaviour and mutual responsibility and care, on a small and large scale, would decline, and people would treat each other badly.
Spirits are attracted to and live in polluted and contaminated earth, stones, and rocks and their breath infects man with diseases that had not existed until circumstances arose.
Violent nyen diseases cannot be healed with non-invasive, traditional medicine.
