The museum is situated in the historic Kadriorg Palace, built in the 18th century by Tsar Peter the Great of Russia as a summer residence. This Baroque-style building was designed by the Italian architect Nicola Michetti. Its glorious and abundantly decorated main hall is one of northern Europe's most exquisite examples of Baroque architecture. You can admire the elaborately painted ceiling and rich stucco work.
