The museum was established by avid historian and school teacher, Volli Mäeumbaed, who became its first director. The museum continues to operate in the same building, which was initially the administrators’ house at the Kassari Manor and later a schoolhouse.
There are items dating from the Tsarist, Estonian, and Soviet periods related to maritime history, as well as the history of agriculture and the manors. There is also much to see outside – a lifeboat from the Estonia, the Kassari school flagpole, manor’s lawn roller. A ship’s anchor pulled from the Orjaku harbour is also interesting. You can rest your feet in the square in front of the museum under a large oak tree – here you are in the heart of the old Kassari Manor.
