Near the Cathedral of St. Peter on the street Skarnyu stands a monument to the Bremen music. It was presented to Riga by the sister city of Bremen. The scene of the monument reminds one of the plots of the Grimm brothers' tale when the characters gathered in the pyramid and peek into the burglar hut. They say that this is a hint of the times of the Cold War, when from the west they tried to look behind the Iron Curtain. I did not really like this hint. Many years have passed since the collapse of the USSR, and time has shown that we should not pin hopes, we should not demonize and idealize and we should only hope for ourselves and believe in ourselves Translated with Google Translate
