This image captures the imposing silhouette of a decommissioned naval vessel, part of the impressive collection at the Seaplane Harbour, Tallinn’s maritime museum. The museum, housed in a historic seaplane hangar built by the Russian Empire in 1916, was part of Peter the Great's naval fortress and is now one of the most notable maritime museums in Europe. The vessel symbolizes Estonia’s rich maritime history, including its strategic importance in the Baltic Sea during various conflicts. The dramatic lighting and industrial design reflect Estonia's efforts to preserve and showcase its naval heritage, connecting the past to the present.

This maritime museum is also home to iconic vessels such as the British-built submarine Lembit, one of the few surviving pre-WWII submarines, which also tells a broader story of Estonia’s role in naval defense during the 20th century.
