I wouldn't have gone too far out of our way to check this place out, but it was OK. The Museum is informative, albeit small. As with any historical monument, it is always under renovation, so there is quite a bit covered up. It felt more like a group of people trying to make a living via the shop, art and craft places, rather than a historical artefact. The church was interesting, but a bus load of tourists prevented us from enjoying and using it due to their tour guides' loud voice.

Must visit place in Põltsamaa! Old loss which is currently under reconstruction, but you still can enter it and view.

Small but cozy castle. You should visit it, but add to your plan something else. For instance, additional visit to rosegarden or something like that.
