On 3 September at 12:00, the exhibition \u201cEstonian Book 500\u201d will open at Wittenstein Time Centre, located in the Paide Rampart Tower.<\/p>\n

In its original form, the exhibition was displayed at the Niguliste Museum in Tallinn together with important artefacts from the history of Estonian written culture and books. It was later presented at the Estonian Literary Museum in Tartu.<\/p>\n

At Wittenstein Time Centre, the exhibition panels are displayed along the stairway of the Paide Rampart Tower, offering visitors an opportunity to travel through the history of Estonian books and learn about the development of Estonian written culture.<\/p>\n

The exhibition was curated by Aivar P\u00f5ldvee from Tallinn University, Lea K\u00f5iv from Tallinn City Archives and Tiiu Reimo. The graphic design was created by Asko K\u00fcnnap.<\/p>\n

The opening of the exhibition \u201cEstonian Book 500\u201d will take place on 3 September at 12:00 at Wittenstein Time Centre in the Paide Rampart Tower.<\/p>\n
