    i wandered by and walked in by accident looking for a lunch. did not knew it was also a free admission to see specific art! it has great vibes and the lady behind the desk was very kind to share more about Tallinn. If you are in this area, it surely is worth 10 minutes of your time to visit it.

    Small museum but the exhibits are really interesting and a bit quirky. Some pieces make you stop and think. Worth a visit if you're into contemporary art and exploring Tallinn! Free entry.
