Where do you go to find fonts? (feddit.dk)

I'm currently on the lookout for something quite specific:

Old style serif
Fairly heavy (not light at least)
Low contrast
Close to upright axis

I'm hoping those terms make sense, I'm not an expert :)

Where would you go for specific requirements like this? Most websites I find only have basic filters like serif/sans serif. Any suggestions for where to look, or maybe you know a nice font that fits what I listed above?
