The exhibition “The Baltic Way – United for Freedom” opened on 23 August, 2024 in Riga, nearby the Statue of Liberty provides a perfect opportunity to get to know the documentary evidence of this historic event from the archives of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.
The Baltic Way, as being one of the most ambitious Baltic nations’ actions for fighting for the freedom, bears an utterly important value for our three nations as well as obliges us to tell this story to every new generation. The Baltic Way, made by the brave Baltic people standing tightly next to each other, holding the hands of each other, and saying as a prayer the magic word of freedom (briviba, laisve, vabadus) can never be forgotten. On the contrary, the Baltic Way is still something that the others, dreaming of the freedom, can learn from us.
