    Very nicely decorated and interactive museum for the whole family. There is a lot to try out and touch and a wide range of different topics are covered. I also really liked the technical “gimmicks”. The price is very fair and you can spend a comfortable 2-3 hours there.

    An interesting and modern exposition. You can't catch everything at once. There is more to come. It is exciting and there is room for discovery for all ages.

    Interesting place, really impressive. Price 12 e per person. Visiting period week of 9/ 2024. A very thorough overview of different parts of the human body and different systems. Lots of detailed illustration tools and also interactive tasks related to different body parts and functions. I recommend it to those interested in medicine.

    Suprisingly big museum with permanent and temporary exhibitions. Takes about 1-2 hours to see everything thoroughly. Even though the museum has many old displays, they have managed to keep the whole exhibition quite modern and interactive. Topics vary from human evolution, body composition, diet to diseases and death. Interesting for adults and kids both.

    Great experience! Kids loved it!!

  • 5/5 Florence B. 3 months ago on Google New
    The museum is exquisite. There is something for everyone to do - there are interactive exhibits as well as videos and reading to do. All exhibits are provided in English, Russian and Estonian so it is accessible for a lot of people. Bathrooms are on most floors and the exhibits are all well lit, bright and, especially important if you're coming to Estonia in winter time, it's warm. There are places to put your coats downstairs. The staff at the counter were nice and made conversation - their English was flawless and they even charged my phone because I had run out of charge which was very kind. The exhibits are amazing - so informative whilst being easy to understand. I learnt things I never knew about the skin, health and food. I recommend this to all in Tallinn. The time and effort that has gone into ensuring these exhibits are well-rounded and informative whilst also being fun is incredible and deserves to be celebrated.

    Such an interesting experience. Would really recommend this place even to those who may not necessarily be in the field of health care. You will learn a lot about the human being through unique and interactive activities and above all, it's just fun!

    A very interesting museum with tons of interactive things. Regardless of age, this is a great spot to visit, as it contains a lot of interesting and useful information about life cycle, live organisms and healthcare. Do reserve at least 2 hours, if not more, if you want to look at everything thoroughly. The currenty available exhibition about sleep is awesome!

  • 5/5 Lunatic F. 7 months ago on Google
    The museum is very interactive and informative. You can learn about basically anything to do with the human body and how it has evolved, as well as see some medicine related tools, honestly anything from the start of life to death. The museum is quite good for children as it has many interactive things (usual in form of screens) they can touch or view, from things like cells to different systems. There is multiple translations at every board with text as well as some brail every so often. Overall it's pretty nice and educational. Happy sightseeing.

  • 5/5 Tarik R (. 7 months ago on Google
    Anatomy, Genetics, Biology, nutrition odontology... a nice museum to have an overview on health sciences

  • 4/5 Momo W. 7 months ago on Google
    Fun museum to visit as a family. Very good explation with a fun attraction and activity. Very educational yet very amusing! It's worth visiting!

  • 5/5 John Rotenstein (. 7 months ago on Google
    Possibly the best museum in Tallinn! It's not about Estonia, it's about the human body and the exhibits give wonderful explanations of everything from skin to reproduction to death. There are amazing cross-sections of bodies to demonstrate how body parts work and interesting models and hands-on activities to help understanding. This type of museum should be in every city to help children and adults understand the human body and appreciate how to take better care of it. I wish I had stayed longer or was able to visit again. If you have the Tallinn Card, definitely add this museum to your list of places to visit.

    This was one of the best health museums I have ever been to. It had a ton of interactive experiments and everything was exiting and new. Despite being only two floors, the museum took you on a journey through evolution, life from conception, pregnancy, puberty and finally death. The museum talking about death and its different stages was something I have never seen in another museum about the human body. The section was done very respectfully and gave a sense of closure to the human life. Another surprising aspect were the real human bodies and organs. Seeing the inside of your body like that gave the feeling of interest and fascination. This museum is a must see in Tallinn, for its insight and creativity. when i come and visit Tallinn again i will come and see the exhibitions again in grater detail.

    It's good for kids up to age 13, maybe... All content is Wikipedia level but wonderfully presented in interactive fashion with games and quizzes For 8 Euros it's definitely not worth the time of a tourist visiting Tallinn since instead of being a museum about the history of medicine, it's just a museum of how the human body works

  • 5/5 Artur K. 2 years ago on Google
    A delightful museum with excellent exhibits. Extremely informative and interactive. It can be interesting for both adults and children. And the friendly staff only brightens up the visit. The temporary exhibition on happiness deserves special attention and is extremely relevant. It is worth revisiting.

  • 5/5 Anuk Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Interactive exhibitions with a wide variety of health related topics. Good for taking kids and exhibits are also engaging for adults.

  • 5/5 Kwok N. 5 years ago on Google
    Very nice and interactive place to learn about the human body. There is a maze of places around the different organs in the body and language available in English, Estonian and Finnish. Good for school children and adults to learn, and a small shop to buy some gifts.

    One of the best museums I’ve ever been to. Astonishing amount of information about the whole life cycle of a human being, even about the addictives! Is also highly interactive and includes many gadgets to touch.

  • 4/5 Annabel S. 1 year ago on Google
    It was okay. A little bit boring but there was a lot of cool stuff! Recommend!

  • 4/5 bogdan alexandru b. 1 year ago on Google
    Great plave to take your kids to understand more about the human body, very interactive, even though some of the gadgets were not working. Will be fixed, i.m sure

  • 5/5 Alex T. 1 year ago on Google
    17 halls with a huge amount of information. If you are actually interested in the topic, you need to book the whole day to see everything. Was here a few times. Very interesting and interactive exhibition. Worth visiting.

  • 5/5 Maria Pacheco (Maria E. 1 year ago on Google
    It was an interesting experience. We got to learn about the human body. All exhibitions are interactive, which is great for going with kids.

  • 5/5 Bea L. 1 year ago on Google
    Had the best time here! You might expect it to be quite boring but it’s the complete opposite. There are so many interactive exhibits and I actually learnt a lot whilst I was there. 10/10.

  • 5/5 Chloe L. 1 year ago on Google
    I really loved visiting this museum. It may not seem like the most interesting place at first glance, but there is so much to do and learn inside. Really interactive with lots of activities, would recommend for both adults and children. We spent about 2 hours at the museum and it was only 6€ for a student ticket.

  • 4/5 Fenya K. 1 year ago on Google
    Interesting museum with so much information! I would like so more audio visual equipment and exhibition items

  • 5/5 karlina j. 1 year ago on Google
    very interactive, so AMAZING for kids. covers a broad variety of human body/health topics, so everyone can find something they’re interested in. the temporary exhibitions are also of very high quality- they’re properly researched and presented in an engaging manner. staff is also very friendly.

  • 5/5 Marek S. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely a "must see" on your to-do list while being in Tallinn. From my point of view one of the most interesting museums I've seen in the recent past with lots of interesting facts about human body. At the same time the amount of information provided is not overwhelming and sometimes they are explained with some simple experiments, which makes it children-friendly.

  • 5/5 Dany T. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is a good source of knowledge about every thing that has to do with humans. Very surprised. The lady at the reception was very nice to me and gave me a lot of traveling tips. Thank you and good luck with you house renovation

  • 5/5 King Leonidas of S. 2 years ago on Google
    Very useful health museum about human organism.I had a real fun to hang there.

  • 5/5 Claudia F. 2 years ago on Google
    Thus museum is stunning! We spent there 3 hrs, but if we had read everything we could have been there 5 or 6 hrs easily. It is well displayed and interesting for both adults and children. I strongly recommend it.
