Saare KEK Museum

Travel back in time to everyday Soviet life

The Time Travel Back to the Soviet Everyday takes a humorous look at a time period, i.e. the 1970s and 1980s, that today’s Estonians can freely smirk about. By that time the Soviet regime had lasted quite a while, but many goods were still in short supply. The situation was difficult, and one had to cope with all the hardships daily, be creative and resourceful, by sometimes, balancing on the edge of absurdity. The exhibition is comprised of 12 different thematic rooms, including a Soviet-era village store and bar. The Saare KEK building itself, which is one of the most outstanding examples of Soviet-era constructivism, deserves special attention.
