Tammsaare Farm Museum, Estonia

I received this beautiful Estonian postcard from Janek in the 'UK & Ireland x other countries RR' recently, one of my favourite RRs on the Postcrossing forum. :)



Here you can see Tammsaare Farm Museum. Tammsaare is a village in Lasva Parish, Võru County in southeastern Estonia. It has a population of 26 and an area of 1.2 km².

Tammsaare is also the name of one of the most important Estonian authors. A.H. Tammsaare was an Estonian writer whose pentalogy Truth and Justice (Tõde ja õigus; 1926–1933) is considered one of the major works of Estonian literature and "The Estonian Novel".



Very nice stamps, too. :) The one on the left was issued in 1996 and shows the Vaindloo lighthouse. The other stamp is from a set of 4 stamps issued in 2005 with the theme 'Angels'.
