Permanent exhibitions The first room of the museum’s permanent exposition gives us an imagination of the Estonian peasant’s life in the 19th century through old tools, necessaries of life, and photographic enlargements Through the low door of a farmhouse we step into the corner of the estate, equipped with stylish furniture.The left of the room gives a survey of the Mahtra War, its antecedents and epilogue. The third room is for temporary exhibitions. The museum arranges 5-6 exhibitions a year, of its own collection, as well as of the stuff gotten from outside. The most valuable part of the museum is Atla-Eeru Inn – the only preserved building of a peasant inn in whole Estonia (built in 1811). Buildingly, it is a typical barnhouse of North Estonia, which is furnished according to the age. Nowadays, Atla-Eru Inn is a good place for organizing children activities. You can learn to bake bread in the large barn kiln, you can measure your strength against the Christmas Goat on the straw of the chamber floor, you can listen to poetry in the twilight of “ghosts’ visiting time....” A the three kilometers from the museum is The Mahtra Battlefield. Nearby is the Bloodfield, where the tragic drop scene of the Mahtra War was taking place. | ||
