Kalevipoja Koda

Kalevite poega kostis: "Kuule, kulla vennikene särgikehva siilikene, astu julgest' põõsa alta, kasukat sull' katsun saada, kohendada varjukuube!" Puges põõsastiku peidust, samblasängist siilikene, alasti mehike väike, külmakärssis küüruteli, lõdises kui haavalehte. Pajatab Kalevipoega: "Sina sõudsid, siilikene, hädatunnil hääda nõuda, kui mul kitsik kippus kätte. Servitie laudu saades mina võitsin vaenulased. Ulgudes kui hundikesed poisid pakkuje pagesid. Tänu-tunnistuseks tüki kasukasta kingin sulle, valmistan sull' varjukuue, okkalise orjasärgi, mis ka mesikäpa poega, kriimusilma kutsikaida peletada võid pesasta."

Just selliste sõnadega kirjeldab Fr. R. Kreutzwald eestlaste rahvuseeposes "Kalevipoeg" siili kasuka saamislugu. Olgu see saatjaks teid aarde otsingul.

Muuseumipere on aardest teadlik ning geopeituritel on lubatud rahumeeli aeda siseneda.

Siiski, kui oled juba aardejahil, siis tasub kindlasti külastada ka muuseumit ennast (https://www.kalevipojakoda.ee/et?om).

NB! Avamiseks pööra konteinerit natuke ja seejärel tõmba pooled üksteisest eemale.

Kalevipoeg Museum

Kalevipoeg spoke: “Come now, dear little brother,rag-clad spiny hedgehog, step out boldly from the bushes— I'll try to find you a coat, fix you a cloak for shelter!” From the thicket’s hidden cover, from his mossy bed, crept the hedgehog— a naked little creature, his nose red with cold, shivering like an aspen leaf. Kalevipoeg said: “You came to help, dear hedgehog, when I was in dire need, when hardship pressed me sorely. With your swift advice and boards, I defeated my enemies. Howling like little wolves, the boys fled into hiding. As a token of thanks, I’ll gift you a piece of fur, make you a shadow-cloak— a prickly shirt that even a bear’s cub, or a striped-eyed pup would fear to approach.”

It is with these words that Fr. R. Kreutzwald describes the story of the hedgehog's coat in the Estonian national epic "Kalevipoeg". May it accompany you in your search for the cache.

The museum family is aware of the cache and geocachers are allowed to enter the garden without any worries.

However, if you are already on a cache hunt, it is definitely worth visiting the museum itself (https://www.kalevipojakoda.ee/en?om).

NB: To open, twist the container slightly and then pull the halves apart.
