On the four storeys of the museum an overview of the history of Estonian maritime and fishing history is given – one can study the details of ship and boat building; learn about Estonian harbours, means of navigation on ships and the lighthouses there. In addition to permanent exposition temporary expositions are organised on the first floor. In the closed yard of the tower an open air exposition is displayed.
