    This place is amazing. The permanent exhibition is dedicated to the Estonian modernist artist Adamson-Eric and displays his work across two floors in a really innovative way. There are lots of different mediums on display and his life story is fascinating. I knew nothing of him before and I am glad to be more knowledgeable now. The temporary exhibition when I visited was also fantastic. It was focused on materials and sustainability and showcased Estonian women artist. Can't recommend visiting this place enough!

    An amazing place — a compact, cozy museum dedicated to a talented Estonian artist from the early 20th century, with a pleasant little backyard and swings. It's lovely to explore the exhibitions and then sit in the well-designed garden, surrounded by old houses and vine-covered walls. There's also a nice shop with many kinds of art-related souvenirs and very friendly staff and curators.
