Õllepruuli (Õllepruul)

Brewer. Pruul from MLG brūwer or brūere, brewer. Known as Brauereistraße or Пивоваренная (Pivovarennaya) in 1907, one year before its Estonian naming, then Brauereigasse in 1942 (due to a higher local Wort ratio…) In 1958, the street seems to have ceased to exist, although today it’s the road leading to Laidoneri Villa, named for Johan Laidoner (1884-1953), one of Estonia’s most notable military men, deported to Siberia in 1940, and died in the infamous Vladimir Central Prison used for political prisoners of the Soviet regime.
