In March, we celebrate the 60th birthday of the Oskar Luts Home Museum. In connection with this, the window display in the building has been updated and an exhibition about the history of the museum is on display.
Already after the death of Oskar Luts in 1953, the writer’s widow, Valentina Luts, started to keep a private museum in her rooms and received both school classes, hiking groups and actors who played in Luts’ dramatizations. Since different people lived in each room of the writer’s home in the post-war years, keeping a private museum and maintaining the house became too much for Valentina Luts. Fortunately, in 1962, the city government at the time adopted a decision to establish the Oskar Luts Memorial Museum. The museum’s first permanent exhibition was opened on March 22, 1964.
The plank exhibition is open from March 1 to October 31, 2024.
