Overview
On this tour, you will see all the main highlights of Tallinn’s Old Town and learn more about daily life in the Middle Ages.
We’ll explore merchants’ dwellings, a 15th-century pharmacy that’s still in operation, the medieval marketplace, the district of knights and nobility, churches, the Town Hall, artisans’ and merchants’ guild halls — and of course, the city wall and its towers.
As we walk, you’ll find out:
who lived in the Upper and Lower Towns, who was exempt from paying entrance fees to the city, how drunkenness was dealt with in medieval times, the cost of black pepper back then, why some young men were called "Blackheads", the meaning behind the medieval proverb “Town air makes you free”
— and much more!
We invite you to explore Tallinn’s Old Town — a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a rare and authentic medieval atmosphere.
Don’t miss it!
