Estonian Museum of Natural History

Thought the museum was interesting but it's a very narrow small building with a lot of stairs. Not many rooms to see but what there is there is wonderful. The animals and such were in both estonian and English however the text for the exhibits were only in Estonian

This is a tiny museum with a nice exposition on the estonian flora and fauna. They provide various prepared specimen and a lot of derails. The target group seem to be kids and young people from Estonia as most of the texts are provided in estonian language. Luckily, they also provide some website with audio guides in english. Hence, don't forget your headphones and earbuds if you are not an native speaker. Due to the small size of the museum with 3 different floors and 2 rooms at each floor, one to two hours are sufficient for a full walkthrough. Enjoy

The temporary mushroom exhibit was truly wonderful. And I greatly appreciated the free English audio guide to find out more. The rest of the museum defintiely caters to Estonians, particularly families with younger kids. I appreciate that they have a strong museum culture. But if you don't understand Estonian, you won't be reading much, as all the posters are in Estonian. But the audio guides (available in English, Finnish, Estonian and Russian) was a great help. The displays are done beautifully and I was pleasantly surprised by the wide variety of fauna and flora. For 10 eur, I think it's a fair price to pay.

A very informative museum. Using an audio guide to translate to English is a great idea! I can't give a perfect score, sorry, as we the wifi didn't work and we had to use data for all the audio files.

A small, lovingly curated museum that highlights the flora, fauna and ecosystems of Estonia. Sadly, most of the exhibitions is not translated into English, so you need to use an app. For some rooms, English text folders are available.

It was a lovely visit although as an Estonian I did not see many English signs there. It has to be mentioned that within the next 6 months they will renovate the place and move to Noblessner. Then I would go again. If you are a foreigner or local reading this review then PLEASE check out “muuseumikaart”! It costs around 60€ and you are welcome to visit most of the museums in Estonia. Cultural bang for the buck!

Exhibit is in Estonian but the museum provides audio guide in English

It was a real good feeling to see and touch the preserved real animals without getting scared. Very well maintained. I think it's a nice place to visit for all ages. Duration of visit is 2 to 5 hours, it depends on how deep you want to understand the nature.
