Tips

Beyond the Horizon

February 1, 2023

Patarei Prison was built in the 19th century and served as a political prison during both the Tsarist era and the Soviet occupation. Today it is a museum that gives visitors an insight into the turbulent history of Estonia.

Patarei Prison is known for its imposing architecture and the somber atmosphere it exudes. It offers a unique opportunity to get a sense of Estonia's past and engage with the country's history.

Visitors can see the cells where former prisoners were imprisoned, as well as the torture chamber and the courtyard that served as a prisoner training ground. There is also an exhibition dedicated to the history of the prison and the people who were imprisoned there.
