The Freedom Monument

posted by bcherry on 16 August 2010 at 16:55

The Latvian Freedom monument was built in 1935 to celebrate the Latvian war of independence which freed them from Soviet rule. When the Soviets reclaimed the country only 10 years later, the monument was allowed to stand and still does today against all the odds!
