Attractions & museums

Vabamu Museum of Occupations and Freedom

We tell the story of Estonia and Estonians through personal memories and the moving stories of grandmothers and grandfathers.

On your journey through the museum, you will be accompanied by an e-guide in either Estonian, Russian, English, Finnish, German, French, or Spanish, which will lead you on an inclusive and reflective journey along the trails of the recent past. The e-guide is included in the ticket price.

In addition, Vabamu has an engaging family level specifically designed for children with a smart family e-guide. The exhibition is accessible to people with hearing, visual, and mobility impairments.

Free with Tallinn Card!

NB! On February 20, Vabamu will be closed from 14:30 onwards.
