Step Into the Middle Ages at Haapsalu Castle
The medieval Episcopal Castle, a true landmark of Haapsalu, invites visitors to explore its rich history and atmosphere. Home to the award-winning Castle Museum — named European Museum of the Year in 2021 — it brings medieval life to life through both traditional displays and interactive exhibits.
The Railway and Communications Museum, located in a century-old station building, tells the story of how Haapsalu became a beloved seaside resort. In the 19th century, the discovery of healing mud drew visitors from afar, and the opening of the railway in 1905 made the town an accessible retreat on the shores of the Baltic Sea.
