Episode 2: Fortress Mountains | Libretto Short Stories

On hilltops around Lake Ladoga stand ancient stone walls—linnavuoret, fortress mountains built by communities who knew that war would come again. These weren't castles of kings but communal refuges where entire villages retreated when raiders approached. Explore the strategic thinking, desperate labor, and grim necessity that created dozens of fortifications across a landscape where survival meant being always ready to defend what you loved.🎵 Libretto Orchestra Music Albums: Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube🌐 libretto.fi#folktales #folkfore #KarelianFolklore #laatokka #LakeLadoga #laatokankansantaruja  #KansantarujaLaatokanluoteisrannikolta #TheodorSchwindt
