Art Museum of Estonia

Art Museum of Estonia Art Museum of Estonia was founded on November 17th, 1919, but it was not until 1921 that it got its first permanent building ­ the Kadriorg Palace, built in the 18th century. In 1929 the palace was expropriated from the Art Museum in order to rebuild it as the residence of the President of Estonia. The Art Museum of Estonia was housed in several different temporary spaces, until it moved back to the palace in 1946. In September, 1991 the Kadriorg Palace was closed, because it had totally deteriorated by then. At the end of the year the Supreme Council of the Republic of Estonia decided to guarantee the construction of a new building for the Art Museum of Estonia in Kadriorg. Untill then the Knighthood House at Toompea Hill served as the temporary main building of the Art Museum of Estonia. The exhibition there was opened on April 1, 1993. Art Museum of Estonia premanently closed down the exhibitions in that building in October 2005. At the end of the 1970s, in

Kadriorg and Pirita Kadriorg (Catherine's Valley), one of the oldest and largest parks in Estonia, covers about 70 hectares. Originally it was an are on the seashore featuring low meadows, shrub land and a few manor houses. In the 17th century most of the land was in the possession of Fonne, the Town Council's secretary. At the time the park was called Fonnenthal. A century later the name was changed to Yekaterinenthal after Yekaterina, wife of Peter I. Kadriorg Palace was designed in Baroque style by the Italian Niccoló Michetti and built in the 1720s on the order of Peter the Great in honour of his wife. The tsar himself is known to have laid three bricks in the foundation of the building

What makes it even more special is that, due to the small population of Estonia, there are less than million Estonian speakers and yet, a tenth of them attend the event. Long established song festival traditions are most likely the reason why Estonians ­ not known for our pop- music or global musical prowess ­ are still referred to as the "singing nation". Singing and songs have played a very important role in Estonian history. Songs were sung when cottagers tilled the manor land, singing sparked the "awakening" era in Estonia, our troops sang national songs fighting through the world wars and during the end of eighties, the Singing Revolution (which started right here on the Song Festival grounds) enabled us to regain our independence from the Soviet Union. The Estonian national collection of folk songs comes second only to Ireland. 2007, the first-ever punk-song-choir festival was organised in Estonia

in mass repression and destroy the Estonian people. In opposition to the moderates, the Tallinn newspaper Teataja (1901­1905), its publisher Konstantin Päts and the lawyer Jaan Teemant, attracted a radical wing of people connected with socialists. The radicals were prepared to resort to revolutionary actions in order to achieve a democratic state; they also demanded an extensive reduction of the land possessed by the manor houses. Estonian socialists were divided into social-democratic-centralists and social-democratic- federalists. The first belonged to the local, strictly conspiratorial organisations of the illegal Russian Social-Democratic Workers' Party (founded in 1898) headed by Mikhail Kalinin and Friedrich Leberecht. The federalists followed Peeter Speek, editor-in-chief of the Tartu newspaper Uudised (News; banned in 1906). The main force behind the socialist and
