Inglite Kodu
About This Museum
People come to Inglite Kodu not just to see old things, but to feel a direct, tangible connection to Estonian rural life. It feels less like a formal museum and more like stepping into a living, breathing homestead where history happened. You can almost smell the woodsmoke and hear the echoes of daily chores in its authentically furnished rooms. It’s a wonderfully intimate and personal glimpse into the past.
Collection Highlights
The heart of the place is the main dwelling itself, filled with original furniture and everyday objects that look as if the family has just stepped out. Don't miss the traditional agricultural tools in the outbuildings and the beautifully preserved textiles that showcase local craftsmanship.
Visitor Information
You'll find it at Põllu tn 10 in Võru; it's a compact site that doesn't take all day, making it a perfect stop to add to a walking tour of the town. Given its smaller size, it's wise to check their opening hours online before you go.
Architecture & Building
The museum is housed in a classic Estonian vernacular wooden building, typical of the region, with a simple, sturdy design and a pitched roof that speaks to its practical, rural origins.
