Hirve Park

Parks & gardensGreen spaces

Hirve Park is one of the most dendrologically diverse parks in Tallinn, and certainly one with an interesting history: it is considered one of the symbols of the restoration of Estonia's independence. It was here that in 1987 people came to openly protest against the Soviet occupation for the first time, presenting the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact between Soviet Russia and Nazi Germany. Famous nationalist meetings were held here calling for Estonia's freedom and playing a huge role in changing the country's history.

*The park is included on the UNESCO World Heritage List along with Tallinn's Old Town

    タリン旧市街の南西に位置する高台「トームペア」の南側に広がっている公園です。 「リンダの像」からも近く、緑たっぷりで癒されました。 早朝に訪問したのですが、ほんとど誰もいなくて独り占め状態でお散歩できました。
