Beautiful architecture surrounds the square.
The square is small, with markets on weekends. In the winter, the Christmas tree and lantern decorations are beautifully illuminated in the evenings. There are a couple of small shops on either side, and the main building appears to have once been a shopping center; it's now home to an evangelical sect. Further along Keskalle is a lovely park with fountains, which feature art installations in the winter.
A beautiful historical place for local residents to relax, host various fairs, and other events. A Christmas tree is erected on the square for New Year's, often attracting locals and visitors. Its well-developed infrastructure and 1950s-style design lend the square added charm.
Welcome! A very nice place! The square is home to the former Pobeda Cinema. Today, it houses the Estonian Full Gospel Church. Markets are held in the square, and the city hosts wonderful events for residents. I highly recommend visiting!
