Þóra Finnsdóttir

Þóra Finnsdóttir (1408 – around 1460) was the prioress of the Benedictine convent named Reynistathir Abbey (Reynistaðarklaustur) in Iceland, serving since the death of the previous prioress, Þórunn Ormsdóttir. She became the abbess on August 25, 1437, when she was ordained by bishop of Skálholt Gozewijn Comhaer. An exemption had to be made for Þóra because she was only 29 years old when her predecessor died, and abbesses had to be at least 30 years old to be ordained.
