Kumu Art Museum

Kumu is the main building of the Art Museum of Estonia and the largest and most representative exhibition place in Estonia. The task of the Kumu Art Museum, opened in 2006, is to preserve and make sense of Estonian art from the 18th century to the present day. Kumu sees its role as a initiator of social and cultural debate, both in the exhibitions of art history and in the gallery of contemporary art, which is a source of new ideas for artists from Estonia and abroad.

Kumu’s permanent exhibition introduces Estonian art from the beginning of the 18th century to 1991, and the temporary exhibitions also include international and contemporary art.
See the Kumu calendar for events and exhibitions taking place there.

Free with Tallinn Card!

From 25.05 to 30.09 Exhibition “Kristi Kongi: Chromatic drift” is also open on Mondays 10.00–18.00.
