Raimond Valgre Museum

Composer Raimond Valgre (1913-1949) lives in the hearts of every Estonian. Everyone has a slightly different take on the man, but almost all see him as a dreamer, a romantic, talented through and through and completely dedicated to music – of which he is a creator of magical melodies. Musicals, plays and films have been made about him; books have been written about him; monuments have been dedicated to him; and his songs are always being sung. Valgre’s contribution to Estonian music and his connections to Rapla, where he spent his childhood years, gave rise to the idea of the Raimond Valgre Museum. Here you can find out all about his life and work, while his famous songs play in the background.
