Traveler reviews
Christie Eckardt
★★★★★Edited a year agoThis is an absolute gem of a museum, tucked away semi-below street level occupying several rooms. The owner is super nice and helpful. We visited yesterday and the collection is incredible, spanning all continents (except Antarctica) and so many countries. The pieces are exquisite and I wish I could have photographed them all. The history displays are interesting and in multiple languages. Definitely recommend!
Klaus Wanderer
★★★★★6 years agoIt's a bit pricey but well worth the visit with the Tallinn card as that cuts prices overall by quite a lot I didn't think I'd spend close to an hour in just three rooms with medals but I did because the collection (which are all original) is actually quite big and there is a lot to take in. This should be a wonderful experience for those interested in history, decorative art and for all lovers of beauty. They have an audio guide that I didn't use but could add more background to the whole thing. The lady there is very considerate, obviously wants the visitors to leave more knowledgeable than they came in
