Very good exhibition with text and pictures. Must see as part of history of Estonia and all baltic countries. Reachable by bus tours or walk

Unless, maybe, you are an Estonian, all the literature is overwhelming (a lot of it). Most of the literature is focused on communism and suppression/plight of Estonians and little on the prison itself. For me it was a 20-minute walk-thru.

It's amazing place. Now if there are removed prison thin walls and trellis I saw a unique Sea Fortress with thick walls. The vibe is a lot better than after the prison closed there. I hope the renovation going as planned and soon we will see a awsome place there.

Insanely creepy and heartbreaking. The exhibitions are very well executed with detailed stories. I recommend taking a tour to hear more history and specific spots in the prison. We didn't due to children that would most likely find the detailed accounts too disturbing. Overall very educational. If you feel or believe in paranormal activity then do your research before visiting.
