Pärnu Museum

Lonely Planet may earn a commission from affiliate links on our site. All recommendations and reviews reflect our own independent opinions.

This museum covers 11,000 years of the Pärnu region's history, from prehistoric relics, right up to a reconstruction of a Soviet-era apartment. Pride of place goes to the 8000-year-old 'Stone-Age Madonna', the oldest sculpture yet found in the Baltics or Scandinavia. Temporary exhibitions are regularly staged, doubling the price of full-access tickets (if you choose to see them).
