Maritime Museum in Tallinn with underwater. Maritime Museum of Estonia in Tallinn. Time and cost of visit

We are quite active parents, and we are not afraid of forays anywhere. Therefore, when I hear surprised exclamations about why drag a child to an “adult” museum, I am just as surprised in response: why not? Even if in prim Russian museums, where you see all the exhibits exclusively “behind glass”, and, it would seem, the child is completely bored there, we managed to interest the little one, then in Estonia, with its desire to be like developed Europe in everything, a visit visiting museums with a child becomes exciting, attractive, enjoyable and... convenient.

Of course, I will be the “eyes” of my little daughter :), it is still difficult for her to convey in words such emotions from culturalization.

So, I will look at the following “adult” Tallinn museums and attractions, and you will understand that even a three-year-old child can be interested there (and that’s exactly how old our little one recently turned).

I'll start with Marine.

The website of the Maritime Museum in Tallinn describes various options for visiting it: it can be viewing only the exhibitions in Tolstoy Margarita in the Old Town (4 euros), or visiting the Lennusadam hangars (a new building with a submarine inside) (8 euros), or Suur Tyl (4 euros) - the world's largest hundred-year-old icebreaker; there is also the option of the Lennusadam hangar + icebreaker Suur Tyl (10 euros)... Or you can go to all three of these museums, which, in fact, are combined on the website into one name The Whole Maritime Museum, but then stock up on provisions :), time, lasting all day, and 12 euros per adult for admission.

I will start my inspection from Tolstoy Margarita in the Old Town, from which it is then about a 20-25 minute walk to the embankment with hangars.

Quite an interesting museum with a classic look and classic exhibited gizmos-attributes of people, one way or another connected with the sea. It has several floors, each of which can be reached by both internal and external stairs. At the top of the Tower itself there is an observation deck with quivering covering plates under your feet and a wonderful view of the Old Town and the port bay. In the museum itself there is a children's corner with coloring pencils, but, in principle, if you have little time to explore the sights of Tallinn and you are not one of those who like to look at “window displays,” this museum can be completely skipped.

Next, our route will proceed through the tram tracks and the intersection to the embankment, where the hangars and icebreaker are located. If you suddenly decide to go to Fat Margarita first, then ask the cashier how to get to Lennusadam, she will explain in detail. As far as I know, public transport is still not allowed there, so either the option is 20 minutes on foot, or three minutes by taxi :)

This is what the hangars look like from the outside.

Lennusadam, or air harbor, is a port and hangars built by order of Nicholas II shortly before the October Revolution to cover the sea route to St. Petersburg from the German fleet, which was a formidable force before the First World War.

The hangar was conceived as a base for housing new products of that time - military seaplanes; it also had to be able to shelter under its roof the largest (at that time) seaplane bomber in the world, "Ilya Muromets". To solve this problem, again for the first time in the world, a domed roof made of reinforced concrete without intermediate supports was built.

Immediately after completion of construction, eight British two-seat Short Type 184 seaplanes were purchased for the naval aviation base; a full-size copy of one of them is now located under the ceiling of the museum and creates a genuine feeling of realism along with the rest of the exhibits.

It is noteworthy that an aircraft of this type was the first in the world to carry out a successful torpedo attack from the air. In general, the air harbor in 1917 was the most, as it is fashionable to say now, innovative and unique in every sense; it is not without reason that it took two years and 15 million euros to restore it and set up a museum in the twenty-first century.

The museum begins with a ticket office located next to huge aquariums, which represent the inhabitants of local rivers, lakes and seas, which arouses genuine interest among visitors who are accustomed to seeing tropical fish in aquariums. - Oh, look, roach, and here is a rudd! - the most frequent exclamations here are in Russian :)

The interior space and exhibitions of the museum are divided into three levels, in accordance with the realities of marine life.

First - underwater level with the image of fish, depth charges and the remains of the wooden ship Maasilinna, built in the 16th century.

The remains of the bottom of the ship Maasilinna, which is 100 times older than the Swedish Vasa, in fact, there is 100 times less of it left. Photo from the museum website.

The floor “at depth” is of different shades of blue - associated with water - and is painted to resemble nautical maps, indicating depths, various cartographic signs and features of the underwater relief.

For special realism, lamps are lowered from the ceiling throughout the hall, with water poured under the glass of the shade: the lamps swing on long cables, rolling it inside themselves - and on the floor the impression of ripples on the water surface of the sea is created.

Second - water surface level with boats, buoys, models of coastal defense structures and weapons.
This level is almost entirely suspended: to the right and left of the bridge, skiffs, boats, various boats and a huge collection of multi-colored large and small buoys float in the air.

Third level - surface th - atmospheric in the literal and figurative sense: a seaplane is gaining altitude overhead (you can get closer to it by climbing a special bridge, but unfortunately, only accompanied by a guide),
there are huge screws hanging from the ceiling, the ceiling itself is stylized to resemble a natural leaking roof and, according to local guides, required ingenuity from the painters to give it a natural look: the concrete vaults were painted with black water-based paint, and then the paint was partially sprayed using water cannons
The glass on the dome and walls was also blurred, thus giving a very impressive look to the hangar. In fact, this “painting” is one of the largest watercolors in the world.
Every 10-15 minutes, a moving image of an attacking seaplane is projected onto the ceiling, while the hall is filled with the hum of engines and other militaristic-industrial sounds, thus giving visitors the opportunity to experience the full range of feelings and sensations of a person caught in an air raid on a naval base.

The main decoration of the museum is submarine Lembit, ordered in 1936 from Great Britain by the Estonian government, is the only submarine of the Tallinn garrison that went through the entire war and was laid up due to old age in one of the Black Sea ports. The boat was preparing to be melted down when it caught the eye of one of the submariners who fought on it during the war: he and the other surviving crew members achieved its transfer to the Baltic and its preservation as a museum exhibit.

During the long period of inactivity, almost all the equipment was removed from the boat, but it remained afloat and in 2011 it was towed to the harbor, after which it was rolled into a hangar and restored, bringing it to perfect condition.

The interior of the submarine is striking in its “intimacy” and ergonomics; it has everything necessary for the boat to stay on a voyage for a long time, but at the same time it’s scary to even think about how dozens of people could live and work in
such a confined space surrounded by such a huge number of machines and mechanisms. Such conditions put adults in a state of loss of perception of space, but children are quite comfortable there: our baby, having barely climbed into the “sleeping” compartment, took off her sandals and climbed to rest on the shelf bed.

The hall has several interactive areas, e.g. airplane simulator, where you can feel like an ancestor of an Estonian Air pilot and lift or land a “steel bird” at Tallinn airport. It's very cool to "fly" on it, and the feeling of flying is quite realistic.

Located next to the airplane simulator submarine simulator in the form of "Yellow Submarine", where, sitting on a chair and looking at the screen, you can get an idea of ​​​​the movement and dive of the submarine.

The luckiest and most patient will have the opportunity to try their hand at navigation of radio controlled ship models according to a small copy of the Tallinn passenger port (all the action takes place in a “pool” of water): there are only a few ship control panels there, and there are never enough visitors and volunteers.

Paper airplane lovers are offered design the most straight-flying model and launch her so that she flies through a narrowing tunnel of rings - entertainment that does not leave indifferent any adult who had a childhood, and there is nothing to say about children.

You can also try yourself as arrow of interactive anti-aircraft crew and try to shoot down a couple of planes and helicopters.

Well, one of the most popular and fun entertainments is Trying on naval uniforms of various times and navies, in which you can take pictures against the backdrop of historical landscapes: on a special terminal you can select a background picture and leave your email address so that the computer will send you the resulting photos.

In general, there are information terminals everywhere in the hall, by attaching your ticket card you can read and see a lot of interesting things about the museum and the exhibits in it, and then send the information you like most to your email.

a fire "shield" and a garbage can - similar "diamonds" stand in the middle of each bridge.

If you order a tour accompanied by a guide, you will be allowed on steep arch bridge- the highest observation point in the hall. Climbing up and down it is a separate pleasure, comparable to some extreme sports))))

The toilets deserve special mention - they are stylized with a marine theme, they look unusual and interesting))), and the wardrobe: there is no cloakroom attendant, and visitors hang outerwear on hangers without any numbers. Scary? ;) There is little. Therefore, I recommend not visiting this museum in mink coats. We were last in the museum three months ago, perhaps something has changed.

The museum on the second level has cafe, where you can have a nice snack.

In conclusion, I would like to note that the museum turned out to be truly unique, there is something to see both for the advanced admirer of the fleet and sea, and for the common man in the street, and the interactivity of the exhibitions and the selection of objects makes the visit interesting and unforgettable not only for adults, but also for children.

So, if we draw a line, what may be interesting to a child:
look, gawk, touch, climb - the museum is really interesting.
- admire the fish in the aquarium
- do it yourself and launch airplanes at the target
- climb on guns and a submarine (our little girl was wildly delighted with it both times!), on torpedoes and depth charges
- "fly" on an airplane
- steer a sailboat
- play with radio-controlled boats
- try on a naval uniform
- “shoot” from an anti-aircraft gun
- have a snack in a cafe
- buy souvenirs for memory

If you have time and energy left, you can go to icebreaker Suur Tyle- it is very close. Wander around it, imagine what it would be like to live and work on it...

Thanks Julia for the recommendation! True, I arrived a little late, and two hours is not enough for this event. How to get to the Seaplane Harbor Maritime Museum? You can just walk along the embankment from the center of Tallinn for about 20 minutes maximum.

Lennusadam (Estonian: Lennusadam) is a sea airport in Tallinn on the shore of the Tallinn Bay. In the international arena it is famous for its architectural and historical monuments - reinforced concrete hangars for seaplanes. It is a branch of the Estonian Maritime Museum.

The hydro airport was built in 1916−1917, becoming part of the Sea Fortress of Emperor Peter the Great. In 1996, it was included in the list of protected sites of the Estonian Antiquities Protection Authority. In May 2012, the Estonian Maritime Museum opened its branch in the hangars.

All that remains of the seaplanes is this mock-up:

And then, you can only climb to it via the humpbacked bridge, accompanied by a guide. And if you come to the museum alone, then there’s no chance :) But the museum itself is really cool. A bunch of exhibits on naval and military topics.

Remains of ancient boats, sea mines and other important things :)

There are even hovercrafts :) However, you can’t touch them. I always wondered what this air cushion felt like:

But on the other hand, it’s quite possible to touch the plane :) And even become its pilot. Virtually, really. But quite realistically you are swaying during the entire flight and you are completely in control of the colossus yourself :)

There is also an interactive game with a virtual naval battle, when you torpedo an opponent or shoot unreal computer targets from a very real machine gun:

But, of course, the main exhibit of the maritime museum is the Lembit submarine, which you can climb into and see from the inside:

The ship was built at the British shipyard Vickers-Armstrong, in the city of Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, Great Britain. Construction of the boat began in May 1935. On May 13, 1936, by order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Estonian Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Johan Laidoner No. 92, the submarine under construction under construction number 706 was given the name Lembit, and on July 7, 1936, at 13:07, the Lembit, together with the similar Kalev, were launched and transferred to Estonia. The godmother of the ship with the words:

I give you a name Lembit. May your activities be happy and successful. Bless, Lord, all who will serve you.

Original text(est.)

became the wife of the Estonian Ambassador to Great Britain Alice Schmidt ( Alice Schmidt). On May 14, 1937, the submarine, after completion, relevant tests and trials, was put into operation and joined the Estonian Navy.

The Estonian elder Lembitu in 1211 led the struggle of the Estonian tribes against the Order of the Swordsmen who invaded Estonian lands. Lembitu died in battle on September 21, 1217 and is revered in Estonia as a folk hero to this day. The gunboat of the Estonian Navy, the former Russian gunboat Bobr, was named after Lembit. In the 1930s, the name “Lembit” was naturally inherited by the newest Estonian submarine, designed to protect the independence of the young Estonian state, which gained independence for the first time in its history in 1918.

The motto of the boat is “Be worthy of your name” (est. "Vääri oma nime" ).

The second most important and interesting exhibit of the maritime museum is the icebreaker-steamer "Suur Tõll"

The icebreaker was built in 1914 by order of the Russian government at the Vulcan-Werke shipyard (German: Vulcan-Werke, Stettin, Germany) for work in the Gulf of Finland. Initially named “Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich” in honor of the first tsar of the Romanov dynasty and assigned to the port of Revel.

In 1914 he was mobilized and then included in the Baltic Fleet. Participated in the First World War and the February Revolution. On March 8, 1917, it was renamed “Volynets” in honor of the Volyn regiment that supported the February revolution. That same year, the crew defected to the Bolsheviks.

In April 1918, the icebreaker was sent to Helsinki to assist Russian warships and guide them on ice to Petrograd.

In Helsinki, the icebreaker was captured by Finnish White Guards. Sent to Tallinn, which by that time was occupied by German troops. On April 28, 1918, it was renamed “Väinämöinen” (Finnish: Wäinämöinen, the name of the hero of the Finnish epic). While under Finnish control, it was used to guide German ships.

At the end of the first Soviet-Finnish war, as a result of the Tartu Peace Agreement, the RSFSR was to be returned. On December 7, 1922, the icebreaker was transferred to Estonia and on November 20, 1922, renamed Suur Tõll (Estonian Suur Tõll, the name of a hero of Estonian folklore).

In 1940, after Estonia joined the USSR, the icebreaker was assigned to the Estonian Shipping Company. In 1941 he became part of the Baltic Fleet, after the start of the Great Patriotic War he was mobilized, armed and included in the special forces detachment of the Red Banner Baltic Fleet.

On November 11, 1941, it was again renamed “Volynets”. During the Great Patriotic War, he took part in the evacuation of the fleet from Tallinn to Kronstadt and in the evacuation of the Hanko garrison.

After the war, in 1952, it underwent major repairs and modernization.

On October 11, 1988, “Volynets” set off from Lomonosov to Tallinn. However, the flag certificate number 001 for the ship renamed Suur Tõll was issued only on January 7, 1992.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the icebreaker was permanently moored and is currently a museum ship.

Well, the tour of the museum is crowned by a huge aquarium:

The Estonian Maritime Museum (Estonian: Eesti Meremuuseum) is a museum exhibition on maritime topics, also related to fishing for scientific research and underwater archaeology.

Story

Opened on February 16, 1935 in the building of the Waterways Administration on the Baikovsky pier of the commercial port (now the territory of terminal “D”). The first director is Captain Madis Mei.

In 1940, after the establishment of Soviet power in Estonia, the museum was abolished, and its collections were divided between various museums. At the end of the 1950s, the Tallinn City Museum was opened on old museum collections in Tallinn, and the Maritime Museum was recreated in 1960.

Currently, the museum exhibition is housed in the Fat Margaret Tower in Tallinn (restored for the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games, reconstruction was completed in 1981). The exhibition presents the history of navigation, local shipbuilding, port and lighthouse facilities. The collection of finds recovered from the Baltic Sea deserves special attention. Diving equipment from different times is also presented here.

In the courtyard there is an open-air exhibition.

In the courtyard of the museum

On the top tier of the Fat Margaret tower there is an observation deck overlooking the Tallinn port. An old lantern (1951-1998) of the Suurup upper lighthouse is presented.

Museum branches

Mine Museum - located in the building of the only remaining powder magazine in the city on Uus Street (built in 1748). The exhibition presents mines from serfs to modern ones and represents mines from the navies of England, Germany, Russia, Finland, France and Estonia.

Historical Hydroharbour (Seaplane Harbour) - an exhibition of historical ships, both in the open air and in former flight hangars. The exhibition includes the following ships: the steam icebreaker "Suur Töll" (1914), the submarine "Lembit" (1936), the minesweeper "Kalev" (1967), the patrol boat "Grif" (1976), a full-size copy of the Short Type 184, an English seaplane , which was used by the Estonian armed forces. The interactive exhibition of the Maritime Museum in former flight hangars tells the story of the naval history of Tallinn and Estonia. The flight hangars, built in 1916 and 1917, were part of the Peter the Great Sea Fortress. These hangars are the first reinforced concrete column-free structures of this size in the world. Charles Lindbergh, who made the first solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean, landed here in 1930.

Working hours:

May - September: Mon-Sun 10.00-19.00 October - April: Tue-Sun 10.00-19.00 On Estonian public holidays the museum is open from 10.00 to 17.00 from August 5th the icebreaker Suur Tõll is open from 10.00 to 17.00

Irina Kuzmina writes from Kaliningrad: After visiting Tallinn last year, I was left with two unfulfilled wishes. The first is to visit the Seaplane Harbor Museum and the second is to somehow get into the Gorhall, take pictures of the interiors, and see the condition of the city’s most grandiose cultural and sports complex, which the capital of Estonia inherited from the Soviet Union.

2.

You can start admiring it right from the door. After all, the building itself is already very interesting and unique due to the fact that it is the first and largest unsupported reinforced concrete structure in the world. Built in 1916-1917. as a base for royal seaplanes. Charles Lindbergh, who made the first solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean, landed here in 1930.

3. Hangar layout.

But these are all numbers and dry facts, and now imagine the childish, completely sincere delight you experience inside the museum. It’s as if you find yourself in a small universe created exclusively for you! No matter how many people there are in the museum, they all somehow scatter evenly around the site and become completely unnoticeable. That's it, you are left alone among the cries of seagulls, the sound of the surf, incredible hugging indigo and, of course, adventures.

4.

The space inside the museum is subject to its own unique concept. The inspection begins with the second tier, which imitates the surface of the water on which various boats, sailboats, and buoys hang. At the bottom (first tier) you can see mines of various configurations, the skeleton of a sailing ship from the 1550s. On the right is supposedly a pier with artillery guns and a moored Lembit submarine, and a British seaplane torpedo bomber Short 184 from the First World War hovered in the air. Well, how can you not get dizzy from all this military-technical diversity?

But the pearl of the museum is still the submarine Lembit, launched in 1936. Surprisingly, back in 2011, before she was decommissioned, she was the oldest operating submarine in the world! Let's go inside!

16.

It’s strange, I can’t say that I’m really crazy about all sorts of engineering and technical things, but I’m unlikely to refuse visiting ships, submarines, and various vessels! I love looking at engine rooms, all kinds of switches, pipes, wires, adapters and other sensors. It’s like poetry and romance, simultaneously finding their technical embodiment.

"Lembit", by the way, like the missing "Kalev", are still the only submarines in the history of Estonian navigation. Both were built in England, but they could not really serve their state. "Kalev" went missing in 1941, it is assumed that it hit a mine and sank, the wreckage has still not been found.

20.

21.

In addition to the exhibition in the hangar, you can see the pier of the Seaplane Harbour, where there are military boats, small, as I understand it, private sailboats and boats and, of course, the icebreaker steamer Suur Tõll.

24.

The ship was built in 1914 in Germany at the VulcanWerkeAG shipyard. Once one of the most powerful icebreakers in the world, this ship sailed under the flags of Tsarist Russia, Finland and the Republic of Estonia under the names Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich, Volynets, Väinämöinen and Suur Tõll.

25.

On the ship you can see the engine and boiler rooms, the captain and crew cabins, the wardroom, the kitchen, and the exhibition hall.

This museum is absolutely incredible, you can definitely walk here for half a day, and if you get puzzled and go through all the attractions, you can disappear for the whole day and not regret it!

So, a short report about our visit to the branch of the Maritime Museum - Lennusadam Seaplane Harbour.

Lennusadam is part of the Estonian Maritime Museum, founded in 1935, the permanent exhibition of which is housed in the Fat Margareta gun tower, built in 1529 and part of the Great Sea Gate complex of Tallinn. It introduces the history of navigation and fishing of the country.

The main exhibition of the Lennusadam Museum is located in huge hangars built at the beginning of the 20th century and intended for parking seaplanes.
When we were here in January, the hangars were closed, you could only see the ships in the port and the icebreaker. The museum has now reopened after renovation:

There is an aquarium, schooners, yachts, coastal defense guns, etc. Museum visitors can also see historical seaplanes and the Lembit submarine.

Using the latest technologies, the illusion of being in water has been created inside the hangars. The interactive part of the exhibition includes seaplane and submarine simulators, as well as a special attraction where tourists can try their hand at navigating the Gulf of Tallinn.
Let's look at the photos (due to the specific lighting, the quality of the photos is not very good, but it gives an idea of ​​the place):

The structure of the exhibition is very reminiscent of the Vasa ship museum in Stockholm: the same dull bluish color, the same gallery around the main exhibits on the second floor.

Even a tank showed up

In the center is the submarine Lembit. You can examine it not only from the outside, but also go down inside.

"Lembit" (Estonian Lembit) is an Estonian submarine, built in 1937 in Great Britain by order of the Estonian government, the second ship of the Kalev class. In 1940, the boat became part of the Red Banner Baltic Fleet of the USSR. Since 1979 - a museum ship in Tallinn.

The Estonian elder Lembitu in 1211 led the struggle of the Estonian tribes against the Order of the Swordsmen who invaded Estonian lands. Lembitu died in battle on September 21, 1217 and is revered in Estonia as a folk hero.

On September 18, 1940, the Soviet naval flag was raised on the Lembit. The boat was included in the Baltic Fleet. In this regard, the ship experienced an almost complete renewal of the crew.

During the Great Patriotic War, captain of the second rank Matiyasevich was appointed commander of the boat.

On August 1, 1994, Lembit was included in the list of ships of the Estonian Navy as ship No. 1. On May 16, 2011, the naval flag was lowered on Lembit. On May 20, 2011, the Lembit was towed to the slipway and on May 21, 2011, lifted ashore using inflatable cushions.

Until 2011, Lembit was moored in the port of Tallinn and was a branch of the Estonian Maritime Museum, open to the public. Unlike most other submarine museums, which have special entrances for visitors, tourists enter the Lembit through one of the entrances provided for by the project - the torpedo loading hatch in the first compartment. Lembit is one of the few surviving World War II submarines and in 2011 was the oldest submarine in the world still afloat. In 2011, the ship was lifted from the water and moved to the royal hangar for seaplanes for dry storage. Access for tourists opened on May 12, 2012.

Torpedo tubes

Museum ships are available for visiting in the open-air area. Let's look:

Basically, the ships are still under repair, so for now they can only be viewed from the outside.

The historical icebreaker Suur Tõll is also located here, open to the public. The next post is about him.
