To get access to these cannons a visitor does not need to pay a ticket to the museum. There are six of them, from which four are described in a nearby board.
From those with a description, two are of unknown origin (perhaps an expert should take a look at them... doesn't sounds good when a museum says it has no idea where a naval cannon comes from) and were found on the bottom of the sea near Tallinn. One of the others is Swedish and the last one is Russian.
