Vares Residency, Valga, Estonia
Tartu European Capital of Culture

The choice fell on the centrally located abandoned Kreisi (district) building. Its metal bars and imposing cell doors speak of its history: it housed a jail during two Soviet periods before serving as a storage until a damaging fire broke out.
