Vabamu Museum of Occupations and Freedom
The exhibition titled Freedom Without Borders at the Vabamu Museum of Occupations and Freedom focuses on the concepts of justice and freedom based on the personal experiences of the Estonian people, which, depending on one’s fate, can be positive or negative, hopeful or hopeless. The exhibition is fact-filled, yet sufficiently playful and engaging to attract visitors of all ages and nationalities. Modern technology helps to animate and give meaning to the personal stories. The permanent exhibition tells the story of Estonia from 1939 until the restoration of independence. An exhibition that opened in November 2022 deals with the last three decades, during which post-Soviet Estonia has become a digital country.
Visitors are guided through the exhibition by an e-guide in English, Russian, German, Latvian, Lithuanian, Finnish, French and Spanish, which helps to connect with the personal stories told throughout the exhibition about the historical events experienced through individual people. Vabamu also hosts temporary exhibitions each year which open up different interpretations of freedom.
