Railway and Communications Museum
The former terminal station of the railway was constructed between 1903 and 1905 to serve the resort town of Haapsalu. With its mysterious and grand station building, it now invites you to discover the nearly century and a half of Estonian railways and retired iron horses.
During the time travel in the old station with an unusually long roofed platform and a royal pavilion, you can hear the sound of a locomotive and meet the courteous station master from the 1930s.
In addition, we welcome you on a trip through the fascinating world of telecommunications and to explore the development and history of communication devices from telegraphy and crank telephone to mobile phones and computers.

A special little place.
If you happen to be in Haapsalu, a quick visit brings you back to the very early 1900s and a magnificent building in a most unexpected location.

Interesting Engine on Display.
What you want to see are the engines and they are accessible without a ticket. The bus from Tallinn let me off right at the station
