Since 1993, the Käsmu Maritime Museum has been situated in a historic border-guard station that dates back to Russian Imperial times. The museum's goal is to acquaint visitors with the history of the legendary captain's village that surrounds it. The exhibits cover all aspects associated with the sea: sailing, fishing, smuggling, as well as the sea as a part of nature and an object of photography and other arts. Special themed museum days are held for children, and mainly focus on two topics: the captain's village and the Viking era.

Käsmu is a village in Haljala Parish, Lääne-Viru County, in northern Estonia, on the territory of Lahemaa National Park. It's located northwest of Võsu, on the Käsmu Peninsula in the Gulf of Finland, surrounded by the Eru Bay to the west and the Käsmu Bay to the east.
