Kids run amok on this playground-filled island, once home to a 13th-century mill and an 18th-century liqueur manufacture, which was destroyed during WWII. Bielarska (Bleachers’ Island) was left empty following the 1975 demolition of the mill ruins and eventually turned into a recreation ground. The island is also home to Socrates, a 1993 sculpture by Ukrainian-Estonian artist Stanislav Netšvolodov.
