Price of Freedom

The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, signed between the Soviet Union and Germany on August 23, 1939, robbed us of our freedom for nearly fifty years. Despite waves of deportations and Russification, the people remembered the independence they had once achieved and yearned to reclaim it.

This tour tells the story of that dream coming true—the story of the price of freedom. We will look at what happened in the late 1980s, and discover the events, the people, and the places that define this historic era.

The “Price of Freedom” tour can be combined with either a Vabamu or a KGB guided tour.

The tour starts in front of Vabamu, located at Toompea 8.
