Kadriorg Art Museum (Kadriorg Palace)

Kadriorg Art Museum brings European and Russian art into a baroque palace setting in Kadriorg Park — an elegant, unhurried museum day with gardens, fountains, and nearby Kumu.

Why It’s an Easy Favorite

Kadriorg Art Museum feels like a “museum day” the way you want it to: beautiful building, calm pacing, and a park outside so you can reset between galleries.

Even if you’re not an art superfan, the palace interiors and gardens make the visit feel special.

What You’ll Experience

Think of it as two pleasures in one:

  • Architecture & atmosphere: a baroque palace museum setting
  • Collections & exhibitions: European and Russian art presented in a more intimate way than a mega-museum

A Perfect Kadriorg Day Plan

Build your day in layers:

  1. Palace museum
  2. Long park wander in Kadriorg
  3. Add Kumu if you want a bigger contemporary/Estonian art anchor

Finish with an easy evening route: Kadriorg → city center dinner (see Best Restaurants).

Practical Notes

Kadriorg museums sometimes rotate exhibitions and have seasonal opening patterns. For current hours and ticket details, check the official Kadriorg Art Museum site before your visit.
