Seaplane Harbour Museum

The aim of the museum lesson is to introduce the story of the submarine Lembit, the development of submarines and life on a submarine. We will take a time trip to the end of the 1930s, when the adventures of the submarine Lembit are intertwined with a pivotal period for the Estonian state. We will discuss the impact of science and technology on human activity. We will study the history of submarine navigation in general, as well as that which is directly related to Estonia. Students will learn about the operations in which Lembit participated, and younger students will focus on life on the most famous Estonian submarine. In grades 1–6, the activities are more playful: students learn about the history of Lembit and the events that took place in Estonia at the same time through a game. With students in grades 7–12, we will also discuss in more depth the topics of national defense in history and today: the important events of the creation, formation, loss and restoration of the Estonian state through the story of Lembit.
