Lost village

Peraküla

Until the Second World War, Peraküla near Abja was considered the most genuine corner of Mulgimaa, where the old Mulgi way of life, farming and culture held on longest. Its cultural heart was Ruukle farm, where villagers staged plays. Among the farms were Enu, Losu, Laatsi and Longi, and the village produced the forest scientist Peeter Rõigas and the photographer Jaan Riet. In 1977 Peraküla was merged into Sarja.

Eesti keeles

Abja lähedal asunud Peraküla peeti kuni Teise maailmasõjani Mulgimaa kõige ehedamaks paigaks, kus vana mulgi elu-olu, majapidamine ja kultuur püsisid kõige kauem. Küla kultuurikeskus oli Ruukle talu, kus etendati näidendeid. Talude seas olid Enu, Losu, Laatsi ja Longi ning külast on pärit metsateadlane Peeter Rõigas ja fotograaf Jaan Riet. 1977. aastal liideti Peraküla Sarjaga.
