Estonian Open Air Museum
On a picturesque expanse of forest parkland on Kopli Bay is
preserved a collection of historic Estonian buildings, transplanted
from around the country to represent rural life through the
centuries. Exhibits consist of various farm buildings, windmills,
watermills and other country clutter offering pleasant and
informative escape from the hubbub of the nearby city. Handcrafts
are on sale, horseback rides on offer, and a village inn caters for
visitors keen to sample local fare. Folk music and dancing displays
are scheduled regularly, and most national holidays are celebrated
here in grand style.
