The historic "Kaevu Valgam" shipbuilding square, which at one time was crucial to the village of Käsmu, was celebrated with the unveiling of a memorial rock on July 14, 2013. Here, the two-mast ships Toudar (1890/1892), Polaris (1899), Edmund (1900), and Adina (1901) were constructed. In 2010, the Viking ship Aimar was built here in order to revive the shipbuilding tradition in Käsmu. 

The Käsmu Lighthouse postage stamp was issued on September 13, 2012 to mark 120 years since the lighthouse was put into use. The stamp was designed by Roman Matkiewicz. A commemorative rubber stamp, envelope, and postcard were also designed for collectors.

​The left wing of the building once housed the office of the Maritime School director, and the director's wife often received guests on the balcony. Even now, it is possible for visitors to lounge on the balcony and drink coffee, or arrange club events and seminars. Theater performances have also been held in the space in summer.

As I am an ichthyologist by study, I have collected everything I can that has a connection to fishing. Visitors can view items ranging from a fishing-spear collection to sprat tins, with miscellaneous odds and ends associated with fishing and seal hunting in-between. I do not yet possess all the fishing tools that have been in use by Käsmu's fishermen, but I do, for example, have tools used for under-ice fishing. Rare items include a life preserver from a rescue boat, as well as consumer products that are over two hundred years old.

Found in the foyer are posters acquainting visitors with the history of the Republic of Estonia, and a selection of old nautical charts. A piece of original Estonian granite (breccia) that flew out of the Neugrund crater is also on display. One of the museum's most exciting exhibitions is the 17^th-century "royal Swedish chair", upon which Swedish King Karl XII sat. Maritime signal flags, a navy rescue flag, and the stern flag of the Estonian warship Lennuk (donated by the Tähe family) have been put on display in the foyer as well.

The museum's main building (ca 400 m2) was built during the last years of the 19th century (about 1872) by Baron Dellingshausen, at the orders of Tsar Alexander III. The building is one of the few stone structures Käsmu, and was likely constructed using stones from the Käsmu Brick Factory. The building has a low roof: a full-grown man is unable to stand up straight in the attic, but mergansers have certainly found it to be a suitable nesting site. The building's outer walls are 70 cm thick with an empty gap in the middle.
