St George’s Night Uprising has served as a symbol of resistance and courage in different periods. In the park near Peterburi Road, visitors are not simply looking at a medieval battlefield as it appeared in 1343. Later generations selected monuments, markers and rituals to give the events their own meanings. Read the park as a landscape of memory where the uprising and the stories subsequently told about it overlap.
