Estonian Museum of Natural History, Natural history museum in Old Town, Tallinn, Estonia.

The Estonian Museum of Natural History exhibits specimens across three floors, containing collections of vascular plants, fungi, vertebrates, invertebrates, and geological samples.

The museum traces its origins to the Estonian Literary Society's collection from 1842, later evolving into the Provincial Museum in 1864 before nationalization in 1940.

Located at Lai 29a in Tallinn, the museum operates Wednesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, offering audio guides in Estonian, English, and Russian.
