Saare is part of Estonia, and the capital of Saare is Kuressaare. Saare is bordered by the Baltic Sea. Kuressaare is located on an island called Saaremaa, which is on the coast of the Gulf of Riga. The town of Kuressaare got its beginning because of a bishop's castle. This all happened around 1422. The Great Northern War saw what had developed in Kuressaare come to an end, as the town was deliberately burned to the ground by the opposing Russian troops in 1710. In the 18th century, Kuressaare became a resort. It had been called Arensburg up until 1918. Then, it was called Kingissepa from 1952-1988. Finally, in 1990, it was called Kuressaare once and for all.
