At first, the
name of Kaberneeme was the fishing coast belonging to the village of
Kaberla.
In 1375, Estonian and Swedish fishermen clashed in
Kaberneeme. In 1485, Kaberneeme is referred to as a Swedish village.
On the military topographic maps of the Russian Empire
(1846-1863), which included the Estland province, the village is
designated as Caberneme.
At the end of the 19th century, the
village of Kaberneeme became one of the most important fishing and
fish processing centers near Tallinn: in 1892, fish smoking was
first started here, and since 1893 a kiln production has been
operating.
In 1944, after the end of the German occupation
and the restoration of the Sovietization of Estonia, almost half of
the 300 inhabitants of the Kaberneeme peninsula sailed abroad.
In Soviet times, there was a horticultural (dacha-building)
cooperative "Kaberneeme" in the village, after which buildings
worthy of interest have survived. A border cordon was located near
the village.
At the bottom of the sea in the Gulf of
Kaberneeme there are the wreckage of the ship Kihelkonna, which is
an archaeological landmark and is included in the Estonian State
Register of Cultural Monuments.
The village is an object of tourism and recreation. The village is
home to the Cabernet Yacht port. There is a hotel and a restaurant in
the port building. There is also a small holiday home.
