Paldiski Travel Guide

Paldiski is a small town with 4000 people and with a very interesting history.

The town was occupied by the Soviet Union (CCCP) for about 50 years! It was a large military base and a leading training center of the Soviet nuclear submarine forces. When Estonia regained independence, the base was closed, and most servicemen and their families returned home to Russia.

Paldiski is today a very perspective area for the development of transit, industry and tourism and a training-center for Estonian peacekeeping forces… Here are many former military buildings and bases remaining.

By the end of year 2004, the construction of a wind farm has been started at Paldiski. Today it provides clean and renewable electricity equivalent to ca. 1% of Estonia’s electricity consumption.
