About this event

Embark on an epic journey through time with Famous Sea Voyages: The Broadening Horizons of Europeans, a sweeping exhibition at Tallinn’s iconic Seaplane Harbour. From October 19, 2024 to January 11, 2026, visitors are invited to relive the age when European explorers and scientists set out to chart the last unknown corners of the globe. The exhibition vividly captures the excitement and perils of 18th and 19th-century sea expeditions fueled by rapid advances in science and technology.

For history lovers and adventure seekers alike, the exhibition showcases rare artifacts from renowned European museums. Marvel at Krusenstern’s chronometer, admire a beautifully restored French ship model, and feel the surge of adrenaline as you try climbing a replica ship’s mast. There’s plenty for families too—curious kids can follow the fun ship rat trail designed especially for younger visitors.
