Viimne reliikvia (Estonian for The Last Relic; Russian: Последняя реликвия, romanized: Poslyednyaya ryelikvya) is a 1969 Estonian-language Soviet film based on Vürst Gabriel ehk Pirita kloostri viimsed päevad (Estonian for Prince Gabriel or The Last Days of Pirita Monastery), a historical novel by Eduard Bornhöhe. The film became extremely popular, and some critics consider it the only Estonian cult film.[1]
The film's content editor was later president of Estonia Lennart Meri.[2]
