Rocca al Mare, located on the Kopli bay , was at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries the summer residence of a wealthy merchant fascinated by Italian culture, and now it houses the Estonian Village Museum. Despite the fact that open-air museums are not the first attractions to visit, I went there to take a break from the crowded Tallinn. The forest, peace and quiet fulfilled their task, and the original Estonian farmsteads, churches and windmills were worth the hardships of the trip.
