Viljandi Strawberries

The Viljandi Strawberries are large, colourful concrete sculptures placed around the town, inspired by the artist Paul Kondas's painting "The Strawberry Eaters". Eight strawberries form an unusual public art trail that invites walkers to notice the smaller details of the townscape. The sculptures link Viljandi's streets to the story of local naive art and have become a recognisable visual symbol of the town. Hunting for the strawberries is a way to discover different streets and photo spots. You can start the walk at the Kondas Centre, but the sculptures themselves stand in public space and make for an experience separate from the museum.
