Seaplane Hangars in Tallinn
The seaplane hangars at Tallinn's Lennusadam were built in 1916–1917 for Peter the Great's naval port, designed and built by the Danish firm Christiani & Nielsen. Three hangars were planned; when work stopped in November 1917, only the shell of the first and the foundation of the second were finished. The Germans completed the first one as a temporary hangar during their occupation. Its three double-curved concrete domes, only 8 centimetres thick at the crown, rest on 24 concrete pillars over a floor 109 by 36 metres. Since 2012 the hangar has housed the Estonian Maritime Museum.

Tallinna Lennusadama vesilennukite angaarid ehitati aastatel 1916–1917 Peeter Suure Sadama jaoks ning neid projekteeris ja ehitas Taani firma Christiani & Nielsen. Kavas oli kolm angaari; kui töö 1917. aasta novembris peatati, olid valmis vaid esimese toorehitis ja teise vundament. Sakslased lõpetasid esimese angaari okupatsiooni ajal ajutisena. Selle kolm kaksikkõverat raudbetoonkuplit, harjal vaid 8 sentimeetrit paksud, toetuvad 24 raudbetoonpostile 109 × 36 meetri suuruse põranda kohal. Alates 2012. aastast asub angaaris Eesti Meremuuseum.
