Top floor had nice 360 video about history of Pärnu from the ice age till modern days. Very nicely done. Second floor model of the old city and some archeological findings from the area. The tower itself was nice. You should pop in if you are interested in history.

A fine structure, but not much to see or learn.

Friendly customer service. Great air conditioning. The 8 euro informational film was not worth it. It was a 360 degree film about local history, but you had to constantly turn back to the monitor to read the description. Perhaps hire a voice over artist to record the text so one can listen while enjoying the 360 movie. Or just pay someone to stand there and read it out loud. I can do it on Sunday’s as I have nothing else to do.

An international exhibition of historical weapons and iron troops has been opened in the defense tower of Pärnu's oldest preserved castle in the summer. The exhibition is worthy of its name, as many items of the collection have belonged to royal families or their bodyguards. On the two floors of the red tower, more than 70 original pieces of the exhibition are exhibited at 750 to 1800. Each item has its own unique story and symbolizes the design of its era. On the first floor of the Red Tower, there is an Oriental display of weapons from Persian, India and Japan, and it is possible to preview the Samurai battle equipment, clothing and weapons. The second floor is in the history of Europe, giving an overview of weapons and ironmongery from the early spring to the beginning of the 1800s.
