Mahtra War information


The Mahtra War (Estonian: Mahtra sõda) was a peasant insurgency at Mahtra Manor (now in Rapla County, 60 km or 37 mi from Tallinn) in Estonia in the Russian Empire from May to July 1858.

The revolt was suppressed. Fourteen peasants were wounded and seven killed in the conflict, and three later died from their wounds. The military casualties included 13 soldiers wounded and one officer killed. Sixty of 65 peasants were sentenced to death by a court martial in Tallinn. Baltic governor-general Alexander Arkadyevich Suvorov later reduced the sentences of 44 peasants to corporal punishment, 35 of whom were sentenced to exile in Siberia, while the remaining 21 defendants were released.[1]
