Muhu Museum
About This Museum
Would you believe this entire village is a museum? The Muhu Museum isn't a single building but a preserved 19th-century fishing village where you can wander freely between old farmsteads. You'll find yourself peeking into authentic thatched-roof homes, their interiors frozen in time with everyday objects still in place. It feels less like a curated exhibit and more like the residents have just stepped out for a moment. It’s an incredibly immersive way to understand island life from another era.
Collection Highlights
Look for the massive, hand-woven rugs with their bold geometric patterns, the fully-equipped old wooden sailboats pulled up on shore, and the rustic farm kitchens complete with cast-iron stoves and traditional cookware.
Visitor Information
Just so you know, it's an open-air museum, so wear comfy shoes for exploring the gravel paths between the houses. The village is right by the sea, making for a wonderfully breezy visit on a sunny day.
Architecture & Building
Think classic Estonian rural vernacular: low-slung limestone and wood buildings topped with thick, picturesque thatched roofs that look like shaggy hats.
