      Very interesting exhibits of Estonia’s tragic but ultimately triumphant history. Located in a charming rural setting but close to Tallinn.

    • Very informative

      A very interesting and well presented museum with friendly and helpful staff. The large items, such as tanks, are about 300 metres away in a separate building.
