Traveler reviews
Adrienne Workman
★★★★★3 months agoSmall but beautiful museum with a focus on porcelain. Current exhibit explores Delft Blue. Beautiful exhibit from a private collection.
Serter Yavuz
★★★★★a month agoThe Mikkel Museum is a small but interesting art museum located next to Kadriorg Palace. It displays the private collection donated by Estonian collector Johannes Mikkel, including European paintings, porcelain, ceramics, and prints. It is easy to combine with Kadriorg Art Museum and is especially worth visiting if you enjoy decorative and classical European art.
