The island consists predominantly of coniferous forest and piles of stones and boulders. اعتبارا من 2005, the island had a population of ten.

كونيلاماگي

Until the Second World War, the island's population numbered about 450 people of Estonian-Swedish origin. However, these people fled during the war. Naissaar under Soviet rule was a military area and off-limits to the public.

Although the fortifications on the island date back to Peter the Great's scheme to fortify تالين, the main fortifications are from the period of Russian rule before World War II. Today, the previous small houses of the Swedish villages are being restored bit-by-bit. Also being restored is a narrow gauge railway that runs from the north to the southern tip of the island.

التاريخ

The island's name means "island of women". It is possible, therefore, that Naissaar is the island the chronicle of Adam of Bremen mentioned around 1075 under the name "Terra Feminarum". Estonian Swedish fishermen were well-established on the island by the 15th Century, and the Swedes erected a small fortress there in 1705 during the Great Northern War. After the war Estonia became part of the Russian Empire. The Tsar had a new fortress, with five bastions, built in 1720, for the defense of Tallinn and St. Petersburg.

An epic single-ship action took place off the north end of the island on قالب:OldStyleDateNY 1808 when the 14-gun Russian cutter Opyt put up an heroic though ultimately unsuccessful fight against the British 44-gun frigate إتش‌إم‌إس Salsette.

In 1850 the island's population was 155 people and by 1858 it had grown to 188, most of whom were Estonian Swedes. Between 1853 and 1856 the inhabitants built a new chapel that was part of the Swedish parish of St. Michael in Tallinn.

The Russians built a new fort during the First World War. Estonia acquired some autonomy in April 1917 by a decree of the Russian provisional government, though Estonia remained under the suzerainty of the Russian Empire. However, after the October Revolution the Bolshevik rebels suspended Estonia's provisional government, the Maapäev.

In December 1917, a group of Russian sailors commandeered Naissaar and proclaimed an independent "socialist republic", known as the Soviet Republic of Soldiers and Fortress-Builders of Nargen,[1] under the leadership of Stepan Petrichenko. The Russian sailors, numbering about 80–90 men, formed a government and levied taxes on the local population.[2]

At this point the new Estonian government appealed to the German army for assistance. The "republic" ceased to exist two months later, on February 26, 1918, when German forces occupied the island, causing the Russians to flee.[3] The sailors fled to Kronstadt, where Petrichenko came to play an important role in the Kronstadt uprising.

After the departure of the German troops the Estonian Provisional Government executed forty Bolshevik prisoners of war here in February 1919.[4] The island then became part of the new Estonian Republic in 1920.
