Linda

The Linda monument features a bronze figure on a granite plinth depicting a woman resting on a stone while carrying rocks.

August Weizenberg created this bronze version of Linda in 1920, following his initial marble rendition from 1880 at the Art Museum of Estonia.

The monument represents a scene from the Estonian epic Kalevipoeg, where Linda takes a break while transporting stones to build her husband Kalev's grave.

The statue stands at coordinates 59.4344272 latitude and 24.7368613 longitude, measuring 2,330 × 3,495 millimeters in central Tallinn.

Memorial ceremonies occur twice yearly at the monument, with synchronized church bells ringing across Estonia at 4 PM during these gatherings.
