Beautiful curch. Beside the main doors are two sculpters dedicated to brave estonian men who died in differet uprisings from 1905 - 1918. During soviet times the sculptures were berried underground next to the church. In 1988 (still during soviet times) Vigala was the first to reopen the sculptures (monument) dedicated to Estonian freedomfighters. It was a very brave thing to do!

Having visited Tallinn before on previous cruises, we decided to go beyond the old city and see what the Estonian countryside was like. Epp, a young Estonian woman with perfect English and a nice car met us at the cruise port and took us to on a most interesting tour! In several stops, Epp prearranged meetings with locals. This included a Catholic priest who personally gave us an in depth tour of his 14th century church including a visit up (way up) to the belfry. We met a cloth weaver, and a lady who showed us around an old manor house as well. Add in a picnic lunch of local foods, and we couldn’t have been more satisfied. Highly recommended.
