The Estonia was a RoPax Baltic Sea ferry that sank on 28 September 1994 on its way from Tallinn to Stockholm off the Finnish island of Utö. With 852 victims, the sinking of the Estonia is the worst shipping accident in post-war European history. According to the official investigation report, the cause of the accident was the bow visor opening in the storm. Only 137 people survived.

The memorial is one of a kind. Main memory. It stands in a beautiful place.

The simple yet impressive structure rises into the sky and commemorates the tragedy of September 28, 1994, when the ferry "Estonia" sank in a storm. Engraved with the coordinates of the accident site, the monument allows one's thoughts to wander into the distance - over the sea and the 852 people who lost their lives that time.

Standing in front of it, one feels the tranquility of the place, which mixes with the rustling of the leaves, as if nature itself wanted to tell a story. It is a place of silence, but also of remembrance - not only of the victims, but also of the strength of the survivors and their families.
