Paldiski Essentials

Paldiski, a former closed Soviet military town, sits on the Pakri Peninsula atop dramatic limestone cliffs. This selection highlights the 52-meter Pakri lighthouse, the highest in Estonia, alongside the town’s maritime and military history represented by the Peetri Toll customs house. The area features seasonal waterfalls like Kersalu and Pakri, the Amandus Adamson studio museum, and Orthodox churches including the historic St. George’s and the modern wooden St. Sergius of Radonezh.
