One of the best and most unexpected experiences I had in Tallinn. We thought based on the images that it would be a tiny cellar with some medals. We were wrong. It was three large rooms with medals and accessories from all over the world, with information plaques next to each display case explaining the history of the pieces. Me and my two friends are into history and we got a guided tour and loads of backstory from the guy running the place. He was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and his enthusiasm was infectious, we had a great time. We stayed longer than we had planned for and really enjoyed ourselves. I would highly recommend this museum!

This is an amazing museum. Its only sevral rooms but packed full with distinctions from all over the world, some of them absolute gems. The owners are incredibly nice people and very knowledgable and they are eager to tell about the expositions. I will definitely revisit in the future when I am in Tallinn again

Small museum but has great collections around the world.
