Hara Harbour
Hara Harbour is situated in the village of the same name in Harju County.
There was a border guard outpost on the shoreline facing the island of Hara which was used during both the imperial era and the era of independence prior to World War II. The outpost was taken over by the Soviet Border Guard during the occupation of Estonia. A military harbour – the historic Hara submarine base or degaussing station – was constructed nearby. Degaussing was done using underwater technical facilities and enabled ship and submarine hulls to repel magnetic mines.
The whole port area used to be a restricted zone. Currently the port houses a visitor centre and is used as a marina. The history of the base can be explored on site, with the quay and ruins also accessible to visitors.
Lahemaa National Park and information point
Kadila and Rohu missile base
This missile base is situated around 10 km from the small borough of Väike-Maarja.
It formed part of the nuclear missile base established in Rakvere during the Soviet era. The base was operated from Rakvere during the 1960s and 1970s. It was closed in 1978, having been depreciated.
What remains today is mostly in ruins. Some of the missile, maintenance and storage hangars and landing fields are still intact.
Forest brothers bunker in Lebavere
In 2020, a forest brother bunker was reopened in Lebavere forest. The bunker was created in 1944–1954 on the model of one of the bunkers of the forest brother Martin Tamme, who hid in the forest, based on the memories of his brother Kaljo Tamme. Martin Tamm lived in such a bunker for the last six years in the forest. In 2001, Väike-Maarja Parish built a bunker for visitors to visit, which was now out of date. Under the leadership of the Väike-Maarja Museum Friends Society, the same bunker and memorial plaque were restored in the forest.
For information and to visit the forest brother's bunker, contact the Väike-Maarja Museum Friends Society with the tour guide. Visiting the bunker with a tour guide is with a fee.
