This is one of the youngest and best museums in Tallinn. The pride of his collection is the Lembit submarine, which back in 2011 was the world's oldest submarine afloat. The boat was restored and in 2012 placed in a museum "for dry storage", now it is open to visitors. Other exhibits of the museum are guns, boats, a seaplane (after all, the museum is located in the former hangars for seaplanes), wooden boats. The museum is fully interactive. As a ticket (10 euros), a magnetic card is issued, with which you can register your email address on any of the information boards. If you want to save any information about the exhibit, then using the same info board and ticket card, you can send it directly to your e-mail.
Information in the museum is provided in several languages, including Russian, but most often this function is used by inquisitive tourists from Finland. In addition to museum exhibits, there are several game entertainments - you can "fly" on an airplane, control a radio-controlled boat, take pictures in fake uniform. The museum has a cafe "Maru", from where the entire museum collection is clearly visible. Perhaps you, like me, having visited the museum once, will come back here just to sit in a cafe overlooking the submarine : ) In addition to the exhibition in the hangars, the museum has exhibits moored in the museum harbor. Among them, the steam-powered icebreaker "Suur Till", which still sailed under the flag of the Russian Empire, stands out.
Ships on the water can be viewed free of charge, and during the traditional Tallinn "Days of the Sea", when the museum territory becomes one of the main venues for the festival, free access is provided not only on board the museum ships, but also on board the guest ships that come here to participate in the festival .
