Soontagana Maalinn

Zemes pilsēta Soonatgana. izveidota 7. - 8. gadsimtā uz Avastes salas purva, bija viens no senākajiem šeit dzīvojošo nocietinājumiem. Tas bija apļveida zemes uzbērums-cietoksnis ar izmēriem 50 x 100 m, kas atradās no 6-7 metriem augstāk nekā pārējā sala. No 1226. gada, kad notika pēdējās kristības, šo vietu var uzskatīt vācu krustnešu iekarotu. (pēc www.visitestonia.com)
Soontagana Stronghold, which is located on an island in Avaste swamp and was established in the 7th to 8th centuries, is one of the best known strongholds of the ancient people living in this region. It is a stronghold with a circular earthwork 50 x 100 m in size, which was 6-7 metres higher than the rest of the island. A very secret underwater path through the swamp led to the stronghold and only those in the know were able to get there. The place succumbed to the crusading knights with the last christenings in 1226. (www.visitestonia.com)
