While walking on the “red carpet” that leads through the palace park to the Film Museum, you will feel like a movie star. The avenue of film and playful artworks along the way will lead visitors through the story of local cinema. This is an introduction to the exhibition, which looks at the history of Estonian film and the world behind the scenes. You are invited to take a closer look at the secret world of moving pictures, and are also given an opportunity to assume the role of a filmmaker.
An important part of the building is the 210-seat cinema and conference hall for film screenings and grand events. Special film events provide visitors with the opportunity to see historical and silent films.
In addition to being able to visit the museum and cinema, the café serves a range of goodies and the museum shop stocks a selection of souvenirs.
The Film Museum operates under the Estonian History Museum and its first permanent exhibition, titled “Take ONE”, deconstructs the film making process and shares the secrets of film making and film makers with everyone.
