en: Johannes Lauristin (1899-1941) was one of the ringleaders among Estonia’s communists during the first Soviet occupation of Estonia during the 1940-1941 period. The monument was put up in the garden of Toompea Castle in Tallinn in 1950. Hans Pöögelmann (1875-1938) was a high-ranking official among the communists of Estonia. He worked in the USSR and was executed there. In 1961, his statue was placed in a green between Imanta (A.Lauteri) and Lembitu streets. Lembit Pärn (1903-1974) was a general of the Red Army. He commanded the Estonian Rifle Corps during WWII. Erected in 1985, his monument was located in Tallinn on Gonsior St. nr. 38 (known as Lomonossov st. at the time), situated in front of the Kandriorg German High School.
