  1. Location and access

The Seaplane Harbour is located in Tallinn in the Kalamaja district at 6 Vesilennuki Street, about 1.5 kilometres from Tallinn Baltic Station. The Seaplane Harbour hangar is surrounded by a diverse leisure area with a harbour, museum ships and a playground. If you stand in front of the Seaplane Harbour hangar, the sea will be behind the hangar, on the north side of the building. Museum ships are exhibited there, which can be visited with a ticket. In addition, there is a concert venue. On the right (or east) side of the building, there is the historic Battery sea fortress, and on the left (or west) is the Noblessner harbour campus.

The exterior of the massive Seaplane Harbour building is in dark and grey tones. The building is 48 metres wide and the length from the façade to the back is 121 metres. There is a tower in each corner of the building. The central part of the black roof is covered by three relatively flat domes. Long-split cylinder-shaped roof elements extend from them all the way to the outer wall, forming the rest of the roof. The height of the building, measured from the top of the dome, is 25 metres. At the top of the dark roof domes, there are 12-faceted lanterns accentuated by small-square windows with wooden frames. On top of each lantern on the dome, there is a plane-shaped weather vane on a rod.

The building and its façades are symmetrical. The front façade of the building is on the south side of the hangar. It is 48 metres wide. Most of the front façade is made up of an airy glass wall divided into sections by concrete posts, and a café terrace on the second floor. There are grey towers in the corners of the façade. In the centre of the front façade, there are two entrance doors located symmetrically relative to the centre. When arriving at the museum, do take some time to look at the building and think how such a building was erected over a hundred years ago.

There are two lifts for moving between the two floors of the museum: one is to the right of the cash desk opposite the stairs, and the other is in the exhibition area opposite the stern of the submarine Lembit. Thus, 90% of the museum is accessible by wheelchair and pram. The museum has an accessible toilet. It is located on the first floor at the left end of the cash register area.
There are 8 floor plans in the building, 6 of which are tactile. To facilitate movement, there is a tactile guidance path in the cash register area, on the cannon podium and on the first floor of the exhibition hall. Visitors can also explore a large cross-sectional model of the building. In addition, there are a number of tactile exhibits and tactile drawings on light boxes on the bridge. An audio guide of the permanent exhibition based on audio description will be completed in autumn 2024.
The cash desk and almost all audio solutions are equipped with a loop amplifier. Several video stories have sign language interpretation.
Please note that the museum’s exhibition area is very dimly lit and with a lot of echo.
Guide dogs and assistance dogs are welcome at the museum.
The museum’s usual opening hours are 10–19 from Monday to Sunday from May to September, and 10–18 from Tuesday to Sunday from October to April.
The phone number of the cash desk is 620 0545.

The public transport stop closest to the Seaplane Harbour is called Lennusadam and it is located on Kalaranna Street near the intersection with Vesilennuki Street. Bus number 73 stops there. The stops for buses coming from and going to the city centre are quite close together on either side of Vesilennuki Street. The distance between the bus stops is about 80 metres. It is about 150 metres from the bus stop to the museum. For navigation guidelines for the visually impaired, see the section “Navigation guidelines for visitors with impaired vision”.

If you come by car, the car can be parked free of charge in the designated parking lot. The parking lot is located across Vesilennuki Street from the Seaplane Harbour. Another designated parking lot is on the right side of the Seaplane Harbour hangar. Parking spaces for disabled visitors are located in the parking lot on the side of the hangar. Please note that free parking must be registered on an interactive screen: one is located in the corridor between the self-service payment terminals and another is in the cloakroom area next to the storage lockers.

With a wheelchair or pram, it is recommended to enter through the right-hand door on the front façade. To the right of this door, there is a button with a wheelchair icon. If you press this button, both sides of the door automatically open outwards.
If you come by taxi, you get closest to the entrance if the taxi stops on the right-hand side of the building. However, if you get out of the taxi on the middle sidewalk, you can move directly to the left entrance. From there, the distance to the right-hand entrance is 5 metres. For the visually impaired, this longer path of about 40 metres may be easier to navigate. Be careful. On the roads surrounding the museum, there may be obstacles that impede car traffic.

  1. Location of the exhibition in the museum

The permanent exhibition of the Seaplane Harbour is arranged as if on three levels: underwater, above the water, and air. A visitor walking on the bridge, ie the second floor, can see all the exhibits just as they would look when moving on the surface of water or on the sea shore. A tour of the exhibition also starts at the beginning of the bridge.
The first floor (on the hangar floor level) houses the cash register area and the “underwater” part of the permanent exhibition. There you can explore the following thematic areas: marine archaeology, sea rescue, marine environment, mines and torpedoes, and submarines.
There is also a diverse children’s area on the floor level, as well as both temporary exhibition areas: the smaller one in the front part and the larger one in the rear part of the hangar. The first floor also houses hobby rooms.

On the second floor, there is a café, as well as the pedestrian bridge where the tour of the exhibition starts. On both sides of the pedestrian bridge, there is the “above the water” part of the permanent exhibition. You can explore the following thematic areas: the development history of watercraft, ethnographic watercraft, refugee and motorboats, ice sailboats, sailing sports and yachts, sea voyages, navigation signs, water aviation, the submarine Lembit and the history of the Estonian naval forces from 1918 to 1940.

  1. For visitors with wheelchairs or prams

Parking spaces for disabled visitors are located in the parking lot on the right side of the hangar. Do not forget to register parking on the interactive screen located in the corridor or the cloakroom area.
With a wheelchair or pram, it is recommended to enter through the right-hand door on the front façade. To the right of this door, there is a button with a wheelchair icon. If you press this button, both sides of the door automatically open outwards.
There are two lifts for moving between the two floors of the museum: one is to the right of the cash desk opposite the stairs, and the other is in the exhibition area opposite the stern of the submarine Lembit. Thus, 90% of the museum is accessible by wheelchair and pram. There is no wheelchair/pram access to the submarine Lembit on the second floor, to the naval forces theme corner, and to a couple of cannons.
If you only want to visit a temporary exhibition, ask the staff to guide you to the exhibition area from the exit door.
There is an accessible toilet at the left end of the museum’s cash register area. There is also a diaper changing table in the accessible toilet. Baby strollers can be left in the cloakroom.

  1. For visitors with impaired hearing

On the bridge on the second floor of the permanent exhibition at the Seaplane Harbour, you can watch seven video stories in Estonian sign language. Sign language interpretation is also available on the first floor level for videos about underwater archaeology, sea rescue and the environment. Sign language interpreters are Gretel Murd and Jari Pärgma. In addition, a loop amplifier helps hard-of-hearing visitors. A loop amplifier is available at the cash desk and for all solutions with audio: all screens on the bridge, audio solutions of the cannon podium, interactive videos of underwater archaeology and audio stories of sea rescue events.
Please note that the permanent exhibition is dimly lit and with a lot of echo.

  1. For visitors with intellectual disabilities

For visitors with intellectual disabilities, booklets in simple language will be completed by autumn 2024.

  1. For visitors with impaired vision

An audio guide based on audio description will be completed in autumn 2024. At the moment, blind and partially sighted visitors are assisted in the museum by a tactile guidance path and markings on the handrail of the bridge. There are also 6 tactile floor plans, 12 tactile maps placed on light boxes, as well as a cross-sectional model of the building and 3 ship models, a tactile plan of the Gulf of Finland, tactile epaulets and a tactile projectile. These tactile solutions are located on the second floor of the exhibition. On the first floor, there are tactile solutions in the marine archaeology area – two models of Soneburg (Maasi castle) ships and clay pipes.

To make it easier to navigate the museum premises, here is a description of what lies ahead!

When you enter the museum and pass through the corridor, you will reach the cash register area. Almost the entire cash register area is in blue tones. Directly opposite the entrance, at the back of the room, you will find one of the largest aquariums in Estonia. The ceiling of the cash register area is decorated with two-dimensional fish-shaped tiles in blue tones and of various sizes. The smooth blue floor is in some places covered with greyish-brown dirt trapper mats. There are also two large concrete posts in the cash register area. Be careful, you might pass them close.
A large white boat-shaped cash desk is located in the centre of the cash register area, away from the walls and more or less between both entrances. The middle part of the cash desk is lower than the sides. From there you can get tickets and an audio guide. If you want an audio guide based on audio description, say so at the cash desk. To the right of the cash desk, there is a lift. When viewed from the entrance, it is around the corner. There is also a staircase near the lift. The lift and stairs take you to the starting point of the exhibition and the café. In the right corner of the room, there is an open cloakroom, and next to it there are storage lockers with code locks. There, along the outer wall, you can also find low poufs to sit on.
Another set of low poufs is on the opposite side along the wall to the left of the cash desk. To the left of the cash desk and poufs is the door you exit when you leave the exhibition. Further to the left are the toilets: first the women’s, then the men’s, and then the accessible toilet. At the left end of the room there is another, narrow staircase that takes you straight to the café. The museum shop is located by the outer wall of the building, to the left of the entrance.
For easier navigation in the cash register area, there are tactile guidance paths on the floor, as well as greyish-brown dirt trapper mats in major walkways. Walkways are a maximum of two metres wide. A dirt trapper mat starting at both entrances leads to an intersecting walkway covered with dirt trapper mats. The first intersecting dirt trapper-covered walkway leads to self-service payment terminals. Another intersecting walkway passes the front of the cash desk and leads to the lift around the corner. A metal guidance path will help you to find the tactile floor plan next to the entrance, as well as the cloakroom and the accessible toilet.

  1. Coming to the museum

You can get to the Seaplane Harbour by bus number 73. You should get off at the bus stop called Lennusadam. It is located on Kalaranna Street.
If you come by bus from the direction of the city centre, turn right after getting off the bus and move 20 metres back towards the city. Move along the paved sidewalk until you reach Vesilennuki Street. Here is an unregulated pedestrian crossing. The crossing is marked by tactile paving with truncated domes.
Cross the roadway. To the right, across Kalaranna Street and a little further towards the city, there is the bus stop of the bus going in the direction of the city centre. Kalaranna Street is wide and the crossing has a safety island.
Continue towards the Seaplane Harbour. First, turn left onto Lennusadama Street and move on about 60 metres. There will be a slope with greenery and a parking lot to your right and a driveway to your left. When the sidewalk turns right, you don’t turn. Move straight ahead to the pedestrian crossing. After crossing Vesilennuki Street turn right. Keep to the left side of the sidewalk. Move straight along the sidewalk. After about 15 metres, you will reach a sidewalk leading to the left. The sidewalk is almost 5 meters wide. This is the first of the three sidewalks leading to the entrance to the Seaplane Harbour. Take this sidewalk and keep to the left side of it. Be careful, as at the beginning of the sidewalk there are stone anchors in the middle of the road that impede car traffic.

After about 30 metres, you will reach a junction where you can turn left or right. If you go left and then straight ahead about 150 metres, you will reach the harbour area with museum ships and a concert venue. To go to the Seaplane Harbour hangar, turn right, walk another 30 metres or so, and then turn left. In front of you is the entrance to the Seaplane Harbour. The left entrance to the Seaplane Harbour is 20 metres from the corner of the building. The right-hand entrance is 20 metres from the right corner. The distance between the entrances is about 5 metres.

If you come by taxi, ask the taxi driver to stop by the central sidewalk, which leads directly to the left door of the museum. The door is about 40 metres from the roadway. Again, be careful, as there may also be obstacles on this road intended to impede car traffic.

  1. Entering the museum

In the middle of the museum’s front façade, there are two entrances about 5 metres apart. The left entrance to the Seaplane Harbour is 20 metres from the corner of the building, while the right-hand door is 20 metres from the right corner. You can enter from both, but the following description and navigation guidelines are based on the right-hand entrance.
The entrances have double glass doors, of which the right side opens. If the door is closed, pull the right-hand door of the entrance outwards using the vertical handle. Then the door opens automatically. You reach the corridor. In the corridor, the walkway at both doors is covered with dirt trapper mats. There are self-service payment terminals between the walkways.
Go straight on about 3.5 metres. You reach the inner glass doors that open automatically. Having passed through them, you are now in the cash register area.

  1. Moving around the cash register area and between floors

Having entered through the right-hand door of the museum and reached the cash register area, move straight to the end of the dirt trapper mat. Find the tactile guidance path. Its starting point is marked with a square with truncated domes (round bumps, and the guidance path begins on the left side of the square. This is an important spot. This square is the starting point for the following navigation guidelines.
Note: if you can’t find this guidance path, you may have entered through the left door. If that is the case, just move on until the dirt trapper mat ends. There will be the cash desk to your right. Move along the edge of the cash desk a little way to the right until you reach the centre of the cash desk. There, the cashier will assist you.
Once you are on the starting square, turn left. Move along the guidance path about 2 metres. You will reach a tactile plan of the first floor of the building.
The size of the plan is 80×60 cm and its lower edge is about 80 centimetres from the floor. Its position corresponds to the position of the building itself. This means that the front façade, both in reality and on the plan, will be to your left, and the rear (seaside) façade to your right. At the bottom of the map there is a legend, and higher up there is a plan of the first floor. You can find the small cylindrical marking that indicates your location (“You are here”) on the left side of the plan. There are a total of 6 tactile floor plans in the museum.

When you have finished studying the floor plan, turn so that the plan is to your left. Take the direction between 11 and 12 o’clock and walk about 4 metres until you reach the cash desk. There you can buy a ticket. Keep your ticket until the end of your visit. To access the exhibition area, the ticket must be scanned on the second floor at the starting point of the permanent exhibition. At the cash desk, an embossed sticker is attached next to the ticket barcode. If you only want to visit a temporary exhibition, ask the staff to guide you to the exhibition area through the exit door.

You can use either the lift or stairs to go to the second floor where the permanent exhibition starts and the museum café is located. The lift and stairs are opposite each other about 5 metres apart. We recommend using the lift, as the guidance path on the second floor starts in front of the lift.

When viewed from the tactile square that indicates the starting point of the museum’s guidance path, the lift is between 2 and 3 o’clock (to the right of the cash desk). Stand on the tactile square so that the entrance is behind you. Take 4 steps straight ahead from the tactile square and you will be back on the dirt trapper mat. Turn right. Walk 5 metres. While walking, there is a wall to your left. When the wall ends, turn left. Move another 2.5 metres along the dirt trapper mat and turn left. You are now in front of the lift. The staircase is behind you. Find the lift button located on the left side at hip level.

In the lift, the buttons are on the right side at hip level. The buttons are tactile, and the floor buttons are located one above the other. The topmost button is the 2nd floor button. Below it is the slightly higher 1st floor button. There are three more buttons below it. These are from left to right: “open door”, “close door” and the alarm button. There is no voice notification of the floors in the lift. The tactile guidance path on the second floor starts right in front of the lift. The beginning of the guidance path is marked by a tactile square. Step a little further until the guidance path turns left. Then move another 3 metres along the guidance path. You arrive at a junction of the guidance path. If you go straight, you will reach the entrance gate to the exhibition. If you want to explore the tactile floor plan first, turn left and move a little over a metre up to the junction of the guidance path. Going straight would take you to the café. You, however, turn right and move on a little until you reach the tactile floor plan. The floor plan is perpendicular to the exhibition hall. Its lower edge is about 80 cm from the floor. At the bottom of the map there is a legend, and higher up there is a plan of the 2nd floor. If you are done exploring the floor plan, turn around so that the plan is behind you, move ahead until the guidance path turns left and then left again. The guidance path ends with a square. Take 3 steps forward. You are now at the entrance gate. Caution! Mind the low step in front of the gate. A metal-sounding strip warns of this step.

To get to the exhibition, you need to scan the ticket. The scanner is to your right and is located about a metre above the floor. If necessary, find the embossed sticker that was attached to the ticket at the cash desk. The sticker is next to the barcode. Place the ticket on top of the security post so that the marked side faces up. The ticket is scanned by the part of the security gate that is above the post. A successful scan is signalled by a very quiet beeping sound; in addition, you can hear when the glass gates open. The gates open in the direction of movement, and visitors need to enter through the gate one by one.

If you want to go to the second floor using the stairs, go up to the lift and turn around so that the lift is behind you. The staircase is ahead of you about 5 metres away. The staircase leading to the second floor is wide and the first and last steps are indicated by tactile round bumps. There is a handrail on both sides of the staircase. Keep to the right-hand side. Go up 18 steps until you reach the staircase curve. Turn left along with the stairs. Go up another 18 steps. Now you are on the second floor. Walk straight ahead about 5 metres until you reach the guidance path that intersects with your direction of movement. Turn right and move on a little until the guidance path ends. You are now near the entrance gates. Take 3 more steps ahead to scan your ticket.

  1. Moving on the 2nd floor bridge

To make it easier to navigate the bridge on the 2nd floor and find the tactile exhibits, the handrails have tactile markings. They are made of brass and are golden in colour.
Three parallel stripes: these indicate a place where you need to follow the handrail instead of a guidance path, or vice versa, the handrail ends and you need to follow the guidance path on the floor. You can find such stripes also beyond the entrance gate: that is the spot on the bridge where the tour starts.
A ship’s wheel with 8 branches and a Braille number sign – you are about to reach a tactile element. Ahead of you is a tactile drawing on a lightbox, a model or a floor plan of the building. The number refers to a specific part in the audio guide based on audio description. There are no digits on the number sign.
An arrowhead in the shape of the letter “V” and a Braille number – go in the direction indicated by the arrow to the other handrail of the bridge. There is a tactile element or something else that might be of interest. The number refers to a specific part in the audio guide based on audio description. There are no digits on the number sign.
A small bump – be careful. There may be an obstacle ahead, such as the edge of an information screen that extends into the walkway and might hurt your hand, or the beginning of a staircase, a turn, or the like.
Two bumps – be very attentive. Slow down and don’t move very close to the edge of the handrail. The handrail may additionally indicate the direction of movement.
An arrowhead in the shape of the letter “V” with a round bump inside – be sure to go in the direction indicated. This is important. There may be danger nearby. It is important to follow this direction sign.
When the audio guide based on audio description is completed, explanatory notes in Braille will also be added to the handrail.
The audio guide based on audio description will provide more detailed information about moving around, as well as the exhibits.

  1. Cloakroom

On the first floor of the museum, a little beyond the lift and staircase, there is an unattended cloakroom. There are also storage lockers with code locks. To go there, stand on the tactile square at the beginning of the guidance path so that the entrance is behind you. Take 3 steps until you are back on the dirt trapper mat. Turn right and move about 6 metres along the right edge of the dirt trapper mat. At the end of the mat, find the tactile guidance path. Move until the path turns right. It only takes 2 shorter steps. Go another 2 metres or so until the guidance path ends. There is a mirror in front of you, and behind the mirror there are a coat rack and a low seat. You have reached the right edge of the cloakroom area. Some coat hooks on the racks are lower and some are higher. The higher hooks are approximately at face level. There are a total of 10 racks in the cloakroom area and they are in front of you on the left side. The racks do not have visual or tactile markings.

The storage lockers are to the left when viewed from the end of the guidance path. Turn left and move on about 3 metres. You will reach the first row of lockers containing 3 lockers. There are a total of 18 storage lockers along this wall. The storage lockers have a door code.

  1. Toilets

The toilets are located on the first floor of the Seaplane Harbour in the cash register area, to the left of the entrances. A tactile guidance path leads to the accessible toilet. The same guidance path also passes the women’s and men’s toilets.
Standing on the tactile square at the beginning of the guidance path with the entrance behind you, take 3 more steps until you reach the next dirt trapper mat. Turn left. Move forward about 5 metres along the left edge of the dirt trapper mat until you reach the end of the mat. Find the tactile square that indicates the beginning of the guidance path. Move on another 15 metres until the guidance path turns right and go straight a few more steps.
The door of the accessible toilet opens outwards to the right. Usually, the light is on in the toilet. If necessary, you can find the switch on the wall on the left. The accessible toilet has a rectangular shape and is about 2.5 metres wide and 2 metres deep. The toilet seat is about 1 metre from the door at your 10 o’clock. The toilet seat has an armrest on both sides. The sink is directly opposite the door, about 1.5 metres away. The tap works with a lever. The soap dispenser and hand drying paper are on the wall to the right of the sink. Next to them is a diaper changing table. The bin is next to the sink on the floor in the right corner. To the left of the sink is a “hands-in” dryer. In front of it, there is a step stool for toddlers.

If you wish to use the women’s or men’s toilet, then to go to the former, move about 10 metres on the same guidance path, and 13 metres to go to the latter. Both doors are to the right of you.

The door to the women’s toilet opens outwards to the right. The toilet has a rectangular shape and consists of two rooms. The lights are on in the toilet. When you enter the door, there is a sink cabinet with three sinks and a total of six taps on the left along the entire wall. There are bins at both ends of the cabinet. The taps work with a sensor detecting hand movement. There are soap dispensers between the taps. Hand drying paper is to the right of the sinks, on the side wall of the room. Next to it there also two “hands-in” dryers. Similar dryers are also opposite the sinks on the other side of the room, almost 6 metres from the door. On the same side and in almost the same distance, there is a doorway leading to the toilet cubicles. When you enter the doorway, there are six cubicles directly opposite you. The doors of the cubicles open outwards to the left. At your 7 o’clock, there are two more cubicles, the doors of which open outwards to the right. The cubicles are narrow, about 1 × 1.5 m. When you enter the cubicle, the toilet seat is right in front of you, the toilet paper holder is on the left, and the bin for sanitary products is on the wall next to the door on the right side.

The men’s toilet is located 3 metres further from the women’s. Its door opens outwards to the right. Like the women’s toilet, it consists of two rooms. The lights are on in the toilet. When you enter the door, there is a sink cabinet with three sinks and six taps along the entire left wall. On the side wall, 4 metres from the door, there is a “hands-in” dryer and hand drying paper. On the side wall, another part of the open space opens to the left, which, in turn, is divided into two sections. On the left, there are three urinals. On the right (opposite the urinals) there is a nook with cubicles: two on the left and two on the right. The doors of the cubicles on the right side open outwards to the left. The cubicles are narrow, about 1 × 1.5 m. When you enter the cubicle, the toilet seat is right in front of you, the toilet paper holder is on the left, and the bin is on the wall next to the door on the right side. The doors of the cubicles on left side of the room open outwards to the right, and the layout of the cubicle is reversed compared to those along the opposite wall.

  1. Exiting the museum

Visitors exit from the exhibitions through the hall at the level of the hangar floor. The exit with automatically opening doors is in the front part of the hall. The guidance path leading to the exit is wider, with three tactile stripes. Move along the guidance path for about 12 metres; meanwhile, the guidance path gets narrower again. A wide ramp leads to the doors. The ramp is signalled by squares on the guidance path. Just before the doors, the guidance path is interrupted. After exiting the doors that open with a motion sensor, take a couple of steps ahead until the guidance path continues. Move along it a few steps until you reach the junction of the guidance path.
To your left, a little further off, is the cash desk, and beyond that are the lift and the cloakroom. Directly in front is the museum shop, and the toilets are to your right. To exit the museum, turn left. Walk about 3 metres along the guidance path until it ends, take a few more steps and you will be back on the dirt trapper mat. To exit, turn right. Moving forward along the dirt trapper mat through the outer corridor, you will reach the left door of the front façade, which opens outwards.
You’re now in front of the Seaplane Harbour. The official taxi stop is to your left, and the bus stop is at your 1 o’clock.

  1. Museum shop

The museum shop is located in the cash register area by the outer wall. It is to the left of the entrance to the museum. If you want to visit the shop right away, take 3 steps forward from the square marking the beginning of the tactile guidance path so that the entrance door is behind you, then turn left. Move forward about 5 metres along the left edge of the dirt trapper mat until you reach the end of the mat. Find the tactile square that indicates the beginning of the guidance path. Go another 3.5 metres until you reach a junction of the guidance path. Turn left and move on about a metre until the guidance path ends. Take another step. You’ve reached the shop. Most of the shop is to your right.

When you enter through the doorway, there is a white product stand to your right. The shop is rectangular, almost 5 metres deep and 10 metres wide. Bright display cabinets, shelves and product stands are located throughout the room, both in the middle and along the walls. When viewed from the door, the cash desk is at your 2 o’clock. The shop sells a wide range of goods, including popular souvenirs – magnets, pens, postcards. In addition, the shop sells a lot of literature on marine topics. In addition to souvenirs and books, you can purchase there a cooling ice cream or bottled water if you wish.

  1. Museum café

The museum café is on the second floor of the museum. To get there, you can either use the stairs or the lift. If you take the lift, move forward about a metre after exiting the lift until the guidance path turns left. Then go another 3 metres until the junction of the guidance path. Turn left there and move 20 metres until the guidance path turns left. You turn, too. Go on another 3 metres or so and when the guidance path turns left again, you turn, too. Take a few more steps until you reach the high café counter.
As you move along the guidance path, there will be standard-height café tables and chairs with backrests to your right and left. Some of them are also opposite the café counter. In the café, you can buy hot and cold drinks, cake and more substantial hot meals. During the summer season, the café terrace on the same floor is also open. Caution! Mind the two steps on the terrace.
