Geocache Description:


The KuMu Code holds rather old, pretty new and even something from the future, offers seekers much well-known, but also something unseen, puts your senses to the test, balances between detectable and imperceptible and welcomes all cache agents to discover it more thoroughly.

I suggest all of you go and check out the exhibitions and the art in KuMu Art Museum and Kadriorg Art Museum - it's truly worth it. 

At present there are five active branches of the Art Museum of Estonia: Kadriorg Art Museum (Kadriorg Palace and Mikkel Museum), Niguliste Museum, Adamson-Eric Museum, Kristjan Raud House Museum and KuMu Art Museum, which is the new main building of the Art Museum of Estonia.

For the first time during its nearly 100-year-old history, the Art Museum of Estonia has a building that both meets the museum's requirements and is worthy of  Estonian art in its collections. KuMu Art Museum is a multi-functional art museum that includes exhibition halls, an auditorium that offers diverse possibilities and an education center for children and art lovers of all ages. KuMu Art Museum was opened on 18th of February 2006. Two years later it won a desirable prize "European Museum 2008". The same year 290 years have passed since the establishment of nice Kadriorg castle and huge park. 

The zero coordinates take You to KuMu parking lots, where You can leave Your vehicle. To find a cache that's been hidden there for long times, a cache agent needs to find the KuMu code. The codes are written in 24h accessible places near KuMu Art Museum and Kadriorg Art Museum.

You'll find first needed digits on forbidding sign near Kadriorg Art Museum. Take 12.75" off. The other combination of numbers is written on the stone handrail that hem the stairs, which take you up or down by the KuMu Art Museum. The calculations are needed because of the changed location since 1st October 2014.

To help code-cracking agents in their work, both objects carrying the codes are seen on the pictures below.

Have a nice time visiting KuMu Art Museum and Kadriorg Art Museum and also have a look at Chancellery of President of Estonia, which is situated between two museums. And most of all, I wish you success and sharpness in cache agent's job!

[EST] KuMu kood ühendab endas üsna vana, väga uut ja lausa tulevastki, pakub nii ammukohatut kui seninägematut, kätkeb tajutavat ja tajumatut, paneb proovile hoomatava ja hoomamatu piirid ning kutsub aardeagente seda kõike lähemalt uurima.

Soovitav on külastada KuMu ja Kadrioru Kunstimuuseumi ning tutvuda neis kogemiseks väljapakutavaga - see on seda aega väärt. Uus kunstimuuseum sai nime aastal 2004, sobivaimaks peeti paljudest kandidaatidest KuMu – KUnsti MUuseum. KuMu avas uksed 18. veebruaril 2006. Kaks aastat hiljem sai KuMu maineka auhinna "Euroopa Muuseum 2008". Samal aastal täitus 290 aastat Kadrioru lossi ja pargi rajamisest. Juubeliaastat tähistab Kadrioru Kunstimuuseum näitusega "Loss ja tema lugu". Juubeliaastal Kadrioru Kunstimuuseumis ja Kadrioru pargis toimuvaid sündmusi tutvustab erileht "Kadriorg 290".

Nullkoordinaadid pargivad KuMu parklas. Kaua peidusolnud aardekirstu asukoha tuvastamiseks tuleb aardeagendil leida KuMu kood. Hästivarjatud ihaldusväärse salalaeka asukoha koordinaadid on kirjas Kadrioru Kunstimuuseumi ja KuMu lähedal ööpäevaringselt ligipääsetavates kohtades.

Esimese numbrijada leiad Kadrioru Kunstimuuseumi juures seisvalt keelusildilt. Sellest lahuta 12.75". Teine vajalik arvude kombinatsioon on kirjas KuMu kõrvalt üles-allaviiva trepi kivist käsipuul. Koodimurdva agendi töö lihtsustamiseks on mõlemad koodikandvad objektid piltidelgi näha.

Põnevat KuMu ja Kadrioru Kunstimuuseumi külastamist, vahepeale jääva Vabariigi Presidendi lossiga tutvumist ning edukat aardeagenditööd!

P.S. Alates 01.10.2014 asub aare uues, viisakamas, kaasaegsemas ja puhtamas kohas, sest senine känd juuriti kogu täiega välja. Sellest ka lisandunud tehted koordinaatidega.
