The Estonian Health Museum (Estonian: Eesti Tervisemuuseum) is a health museum in Tallinn, Estonia. The museum collects, exhibits, and analyzes objects related to healthcare in Estonia.[1]
The museum was established in 1921. Its first exhibition, held from 1924 to 1928, had 300 exhibits borrowed from foreign museums.[2] Before 1945, the museum was located in Tartu. In 1932, a branch was opened in Tallinn. In 1945, the museum was re-organized into the Sanitation Education Centre (Estonian: sanitaarharidusmaja). In 1950, the Sanitation Education Centre was closed.[1]
During the Soviet occupation of Estonia, the museum was closed and many of its items were destroyed. The museum re-opened in 1980 in Tallinn as the Republic Health Museum of the Sanitation Education Centre. In 1989, when it was reorganized as an independent institution, the museum changed its name back to the Estonian Health Museum.[2]
