The Estonian Rescue Board has mapped out the locations of around 100 public shelters in Estonia. Ideally, there should be at least one in each district. However, in case of emergency, people are advised that the first place they should try to seek shelter is in their homes. Public shelters are for the use of those who find themselves in urban space outside their homes during an emergency.

Estonia still has yet to find funding for setting up potential shelter sites. Now the state intends to review previously mapped out shelter sites and will try to quickly strike deals with their owners.
