The Kadriorg Palace, which is now a museum, was built in 1725 for Peter The Great - a Russian monarch who ruled the Tsardom of Russia from 1682 to 1721. 

Anne's working visit to Estonia marks her third trip abroad since the start of the year. Earlier this month, the Princess Royal flew to Cyprus in her role as Colonel-in-Chief of the Royal Logistic Corps. 

On 16 January, Anne and Sir Tim also represented the British royal family at the funeral service for the former king of Greece, Constantine II, in Athens.
