Again one museum in Tartu which was cheap. It's worth a visit. There is old cells that were used by the KGB. Inside those cells there is a lot of information about the period of 1940's-1980's. Of course it's mostly about Soviet Union but includes something about Nazi period too.

A small museum in the cells used by the KGB. Tells the story of occupation by the Soviet regime in particular. Sad and depressing in terms of people's ability to behave inhumanely to others, but an important piece of history to understand. These museums start to help the visitor understand why each of the Baltic States are such keen members of the EU and NATO. They cherish their long awaited independence.

Definitely worth a visit. the testimonials of Estonian prisonners held here and tortured and/or transported later to Siberia for a crime none other than that of being Estonian, thanks to Stalin's policy of ethnic cleansing. Hair raising, sad, depressing. But a must. Just to remind people of what dictatorships do to people. Likewise visit the museum of deportation in Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius.

The museum is quite small and covers one floor. However, the entry fee of 4 euro is definitely worth the visit if in Tartu. The museum has exhibits and displays scattered throughout the rooms. The highlight for me was at the end of the corridor in room eight and don't leave until the door slams shut. soon!

This museum makes one really consider the impact of soviet rule in Estonia. The exhibits left you with chills. Only plan about thirty minutes to tour the site. There are information sheets in English to explain the exhibits. A must do if touring Tartu.

This is what I wanted to get out of the KGB house in Riga, Latvia - a concise history of what happened at the time of the second world war and the years since, up until independence. This is a small museum with plenty of text, but it's considered, and well delivered through personal stories. Takes 45-90 minutes to go through, depending on how thorough you are.

It is really small museum. Not much to see here. I cannot recommend. If you don't have anything else to see then go here. There is a small amount of history to read about the Estonia and how KGB has worked during the history.

This museum is a must see for all visitors to Tartu who have just the vaguest interest in what it was like to be Estonian under the Soviet regime.The displays are very well put together and the statistics given in the displays make grim reading. The shocking thing for me is that this is relatively recent history and it affected me more than I anticipated

Though small we really enjoyed this experience. The display is very well put together . Everything is in Estonian and English. It gives a great insight into the suffering of the Estonian people in the last century. Well worth a visit and cheap entrance fee.

The place was very small, and calling it a museum makes one think that it's quite a big bigger. However, it gives a truthful picture of what kind these places used to be, not that long ago. Would have appreciated more detailed information which is possible, if you call ahead and reserve a guided tour.
