"KALALA" LAKE MUSEUM
Lake Museum is situated on the east shore of the lake, in the former aquarium  building
of the Estonian University of Life Sciences, Limnological Centre. Building was renovated during 2005-2006 with the help of EU programme.
Main goal of the centre is to provide training possibilities, advice and
information to interested regional groups, visitors, and possible
inves-tors/entrepreneurs from outside. Being also an educational institution,
the accent is put on themes related to lakes and their surroundings such as
living organisms, water quality, overall status, perspectives of improving the
status of lakes and training of people in environmentally friendly behaviour.
Special attention will be paid to active practical learning about the lake and
its inhabitants. A main focus of the Visitor
Centre is information about fishery and fish species living in the lake now and
in former eras of earth history. In the aquariums of the lake museum with a
total volume of 10 m3 over 20
fish species are presented such as Eel, Pike, Bream, White bream, Roach,
Pikeperch, Perch etc. Specially designed river aquariums mainly exhibit fish
species living in rivers and brooks, like dace, riffle minnow and brook
lamprey.
