Arvo Part is the most performed and recognizable of any contemporary composers.

We invite you to visit the Arvo Part Centre and immerse yourself in the world of his unique music.

You will learn about his life and creative process, admire building's unique design and ascend the tower for panoramic views.

On the way to the center, we will stop at the coastal cliff of the Pakri Peninsula to see the highest lighthouse in Estonia and enjoy the breathtaking view of the sea.

The route to the cliff passes through the town of Paldiski, a former Soviet submarine training centre containing two nuclear reactors now encased in concrete.

Next, you will see the Keila waterfall, a stunning natural landmark surrounded by a park with paths and suspension bridges. You will enjoy the soothing sound of falling water and the relaxing atmosphere of the surrounding area. The recently restored Keila-Joa manor once belonged to the head of the secret police of the Russian Emperor Nicholas I.
