Occupying a former granary in Tallinn's old town, this museum gathers Estonian design and craft from the early twentieth century to the present. Its collections span furniture, ceramics, glass, textiles and jewellery, tracing how local makers absorbed modern movements while keeping distinct traditions. Rotating exhibitions highlight contemporary designers alongside historical pieces. The vaulted stone interior of the old storehouse gives the displays an atmospheric backdrop, and the museum sits close to the town's main medieval streets.
