Muinastaide Koda
In Lahemaa national park, nearby Palmse manor, you can find the Muinastaide Koda – a museum of prehistoric rock art where the copies of the Lake Onega rock carvings (petroglyphs) are exhibited. A group of enthusiasts from the Estonian Society of Prehistoric Art (www.muinastaideselts.ee) have been to Karelia in 1982 – 2015 to make these frottage copies on the spot. Rock art of Lake Onega is made in the Stone Age about 6000 years ago. The petroglyphs of Lake Onega, together with those of the White Sea, have been included on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2021.
