Rummu Quarry. Estonia
The former prison has initially turned into a commercial entertainment for tourists. Previously, prisoners used to work at Rummu’s quarry known as a rich limestone deposit. After the liquidation of the prison, the quarry along with equipment and buildings was quickly flooded. Now Rummu is known for its crystal clean water and is a great place for divers and extreme sports fans.
⠀
On the other side of the quarry you will find the Paekalda Recreation Center where you can enjoy renting a boat or canoe, basking in sauna, staying overnight in big round barrels on the water, diving, and fishing on ice in winter.
