Bruno Aleksander Linneberg joined the Navy during the Estonian War of Independence. Being only 19 years old but growing into one of the most gifted and bright officers in Estonian naval forces granted with both the gift and a curse to live in a historically complicated era.
The personal exhibition “UMUK UDŽD OTB. An exhibition of Bruno Linneberg, an Estonian navy and intelligence Officer” in the Seaplane Harbour, based on research by the Estonian Maritime Museum. The exhibition explores the life and choices of an extraordinary Estonian man during the most hectic decades of the 20th century that shaped Estonia’s destiny and the entire world. Through the career of Bruno Linneberg, we get to know the story of the Estonian Navy between the two world wars and witness the destruction of an extraordinary life’s work.
Since an essential part of Linneberg’s career was performing intelligence assignments, the exhibition is the first to open the door to Estonian intelligence’s thrilling and dangerous world during the first half of the 20th century.
The exhibition’s curator is Arto Oll, a researcher of the Estonian Maritime Museum and co-author of a book on Lieutenant Commander Linneberg, Pagide Pillutada (Argo, 2021), alongside Reet Naber. The exhibition was created in cooperation with an intelligence historian Ivo Juurvee, the author of the book 100 aastat luuret ja vastuluuret Eestis and a consultant to the movie O2.
