    Seaplane Harbour, Estonian Maritime Museum

    The most exciting maritime museum in Europe is located in the Seaplane Harbour! About 200 authentic items are on display at the historical seaplane hangar: a submarine called Lembit, a century-old icebreaker Suur Tõll, a seaplane called Short 184, remains of the oldest ship found in Estonia, and much more. There is also cafe MARU and a museum shop. Globe-trotting in a submarine, having your picture taken in a navy uniform, an aquarium, simulators, throwing paper airplanes, a children's corner with drawing tools, building blocks, an authentic sailboat, and an outdoor playground – programmes and materials meant for independent visits are playful and broaden the horizon of children and adults alike.

      This was a pretty good museum, though it is more for children than adults, that said we did enjoy the experience. There are also some more boats outside to have a look at.

    • Amazing insight into Estonian maritime history

      With the old submarine as the undisputed highlight this maritime museum in the renovated old seaplane hangar from 1917-18 is extraordinary and a MUST SEE when visiting Tallinn. Using State of the Art... Read more comments
