A medieval gem on the north coast of Estonia, Tallinn is a cultural and historical treasure well worth attention on any adventure to the Baltics. This picturesque city will enchant you at every turn!
From grand castles to resplendent cathedrals, Tallinn’s Old Town neighborhood, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the perfect place to begin exploring. Enter through Viru Väravad, or Viru Gate, the former fortress whose remaining two towers beckon you into the heart of the city. Highlights of Old Town include Tallinna raekoda, the Gothic-style town hall, Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the instantly recognizable Russian Orthodox cathedral with towering domes, and Toompea Castle, an immense palace atop Toompea Hill and once the seat of Estonian royalty.
Don’t forget to peruse Tallinn’s many museums to discover Estonia’s finest art and immersive historical exhibits. The Kumu Art Museum boasts the country’s best contemporary art pieces, while the Estonian Open Air Museum allows you to follow the footsteps of Tallinn’s villagers in preserved taverns and school houses dating back to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Visit the KGB Museum to learn more about the city’s past occupation by the Soviet Union.
Let Tallinn, Estonia enthrall you!
