After a long search, in 1927 a suitable 6-room apartment was found in a state-owned castellated house. The apartment was renovated and furnished at the expense of the Ministry of Education. M. Luther factory furniture. In the museum you can see the writer's apartment in its original form, furnished with original furniture, and get an insight into the life and personality of Eduard Vilde.
