The museum features nearly 80 historic buildings dating from the late 17th to the early 20th century. Relocated from different regions of Estonia, the buildings are arranged to recreate traditional village and farm life. Highlights include thatched-roof farmhouses, windmills and watermills, a 17th-century church, a fire station, an inn and a schoolhouse.

During the tour, discover how people lived and worked in rural Estonia, see demonstrations of traditional farm and household activities, browse Estonian handicrafts and enjoy a hearty traditional Estonian lunch at the museum’s historic inn.
