Haapsalu Air Base is a relic of the Cold War, originally built as a Soviet military airfield. Today, it serves general aviation and occasional events. Visitors can explore the vast, decaying runways and hangars, which offer a haunting glimpse into the region's past. The site is popular with urban explorers and photographers, though much of the infrastructure is off-limits due to safety concerns. Its remote location adds to the eerie atmosphere.
