The former Maritime School (1894-1914) trained more than 1,000 students.
During Soviet times, a border guard facility was housed here, and the border guard
tower has been preserved. Along the road to the school are forested shoreline
dunes with small buildings which create an interesting coastal landscape. The road
between the Maritime School and the sea was once known as the Captains’ Road.
