The historical New Market area behind the National Opera Estonia in Tallinn has become the site for a monument to the first head of government and president of Estonia Konstantin Päts. The statue arrived in its new location on Monday morning and will be unveiled this Friday.
Sculptor Vergo Vernik has asked the Tallinn city government to extend the contractual deadline for the completion and installation of Konstantin Päts' statue as the subcontracting stonemason is in jail.
