Description

Learn about the role of song in Estonia's history as a call to unity and resistance. Literally listen to the history and, even, maybe, sing along.
Step into the story of how choral singing became Estonia’s quiet rebellion on a guided walking tour of the Song Festival Grounds. Learn how this force helped bring down an empire and hear the songs that changed a nation.

Through the centuries, song has been more than music in Estonia. It has been a call to unity, a form of resistance, and the heartbeat of a nation unwilling to be silenced. As you walk, listen to the stories of those who stood here before, to the echoes of past festivals, and to the voices that still rise today.

Hear about the bees that managed to bring down an empire by collecting pollen and producing honey. Step into history and walk through the music.
