Review:
Though the Estonian History Museum wasn’t officially named so until 1989, its origin goes back to 1802 when Johann Burchard, the town hall pharmacist, started a collection of marbled Easter eggs called Mon Faible, or “My Weakness.” Over the years, the museum grew exponentially, and visitors will find many exhibits that explain Estonia’s history visually.
Some of the exhibits include recreations of domestic interiors, historically dressed mannequins, and a collection of army uniforms and weapons from the 1940s and 50s. One of the more popular exhibitions is an original hut that was used by the Forest Brothers, partisans who waged guerilla war during the Soviet invasion.
