The building is fabulous: in the middle of Kadriorg Park, next to Peter's cottage and Kadriorg Palace, but it doesn't have many interesting works in exposition. Good cafe on the ground floor and views of Tallinn from the 5th floor.

If you decide to walk a little bit further from Kadriorg's palace, you'll arrive at the Kumu Museum whose outside Architecture is perfectly melting into its green background. You'll appreciate the design of the place as well as the paintings and statues hosted inside the museum !!
I had thought that this museum specialised in modern art, so was quite surprised when we started with the gallery showing art from 200 years ago. However as you move through the different galleries you proceed in time up to the modern art of today. It was great to learn about Estonian artists and those from the Balkan region. My...

If you are in the least interested in art (and even if you're not), this is a must. The collection is impressive by any standards, but the artists are little-known outside Eastern Europe. An eye-opener.
I know nothing about Estonian art, but was quite taken with the collection here. If you are an art lover, go -- you won't be disappointed....you'll see a lot of beautiful art by artists you've (maybe) never heard of. A unique space, and a wonderful way to spend an hour. It's a bit of a walk through the park from...

I've been meaning to go to this museum for a long time, and finally got the chance. It wasn't the easiest place to get to, but with a taxi it doesn't take that long from Tallinn city center. The building itself is interesting architecture, and the whole museum is full of art from different periods in Estonian history. It was...

Gives a history of Estonian Art, from the Renaissance through the Soviet Era to the contemporary stuff. Also had cool exhibitions - computer games from France and Germany and a German Design gallery. Beautifully designed museum as well, set in a limestone cliff thingy.
Very affluent building. A lot of to see and experience. There are a lot of galleries, future-rooms, educational for everybody. Take bravely a 3-4 hours for the Kumu's journey. Make sure you look before you are going, most of the rooms can be closed ( preparing a new gallery)
It took us several hours to go through this museum. In Finland we have separate museums for modern and traditional art, but this Estonian museum had combined these two. The experience was interesting, I 'specially remember one peace of art which was made out of computer screens that showed bright colours and a film of meat. There were lots of...

Intelligent exhibitions, especially for us as we are interested in Socialist realist art, but also good contemporary works. Fascinating building, very pleasant coffee shop and can be combined with a walk in Kadriog Park and other museums close by.
