The guided tour “Triangle” invites you on a time journey into the mid-1980s. The triangle around Freedom Square – between the cafés Moskva, Varblane and Pegasus – became a gathering place for the free spirits of that time: bohemians and dissident intellectuals, writers and artists, punks and hippies, gays, outlaws, and pickpockets. During the last years of the Soviet period, the triangle also became a springboard for the first protest gestures leading to political upheaval.
The histories of literature, punk culture, LGBT+ communities are usually told separately from each another. There is not much knowledge how these partially underground subcultures interacted, but it is certain that their paths crossed from time to time. The guided tour “Triangle” narrates three histories next to each other and seeks for connections between them.
The tour on 27 September is in English.
The duration of the walk is 2 hours. The walking route starts from Freedom square, moves upstairs to Harjumägi and then downstairs to Harju street. The event takes place also with rainy weather.
