battle of Rägavere monument

At Rägavere near Rakvere a memorial remembers the men who fell in the battle of Rägavere in the War of Independence. It was unveiled on 13 September 1931, smashed in 1940, rebuilt in 1942 under the German occupation and finally destroyed in 1944. On 1 July 1989 a new monument closely copying the original was unveiled on the same spot.
