- Discover the highlights of Tallinn Old Town
Be part of this fascinating, two-hour walking tour to discover the medieval landmarks of Tallinn. Starting from the famous town hall square (since the starting point is subject to change, we request you to inform us after booking the tour), we will take you to the highlights of Tallinn's Old Town, giving you the chance to learn more about the history of Tallinn through interesting stories and feel the medieval atmosphere from a time long past.
You will see all the main highlights including the Latin quarter, where a Dominican monastery was situated since the 13th century, and Pikk Street, which use to be the main street of Tallinn in the Middle Ages and where you can see the houses of merchants and craftsmen.
Next you will get acquainted with the medieval architecture of Tallinn and learn what makes it so special as you gaze at the churches of the Holy Ghost, St Nicolas and St Olaf. The old town consists of two parts, the lower town and the upper town. After exploring the former, you will then head for the latter via Short Leg Street.
The upper town, which was home to noble knights, landlords and soldiers, is where you will discover two cathedrals, the Russian Orthodox Alexander Nevsky Cathedral and the Lutheran St Mary’s Cathedral. See the castle which hosts the Parliament of Estonia along with a castle tower named Tall Herman. Enjoy a view of the city from one of the viewing platforms located in the upper town.
Follow Short Leg Street back to lower town and call it an end to your walking tour on reaching the town hall square.
