Soviet map of Estonia, 1940.

The Estonian resistance movement (Estonian Eesti vastupanuliikumine) was an underground insurgency movement to resist the occupation of Estonia by Nazi Germany (1941-1944) during World War II. Due to the unusually lenient terms given to Estonia by the German occupation authorities, especially in comparison to the preceding Soviet occupation of Estonia (1940-1941), the movement had less popular support, and therefore was slower to develop effective tactics on a wide scale than in some other countries.

However, by 1943 a number of Estonians were involved in underground activities ranging from producing illegal publications to spying to violent sabotage. They included, amongst others: Adolf Aitsen, Rein Alasoo, Eduard Aumere, Richard Ehrlich, Mercedes-Angela Jaus, Evald Kallas, Vera Kraubner, Hendrik Kuivas, Helmi Kurs, Georgi Loik, Aleksander Looring, Johanna Lunter, Mihkel Mihkelson, Jaan Nahodsen, Irmgard Nurmhein, Leonida Parvits, Erik Paulson, Villem Pivkan, Eduard Planken, Ludvig Prints, Kaarel Raidväli, Astra Randkivi, Ireene Reinhold, Aleksei Saar, Tarmo Talvi, and Artur Vaha.[1]
