Why Tallinn Is Worth Visiting At Least Once in a Lifetime

The Estonian capital seems to have emerged from a medieval fairy tale. Here, Gothic architecture meets cozy cafes, and cobblestone streets tell of the city's rich past. When tourists plan a vacation, they increasingly choose Northern Europe, and among many destinations, Tallinn is one of them. And all because it attracts with a special atmosphere: intimate, soulful, and at the same time European-style. Thanks to its compactness, the city is ideal for walking tours, especially if you decide to take a free walking tour in Tallinn.

What to See in Tallinn: Top Sightseeings

To immerse yourself in the city's cultural heritage, you only need to take a few steps through its old center. However, some places deserve a closer look - and you better know where to go in advance.

Toompea Castle

This citadel is a symbol of Estonian state power. It rises on the hill of the same name and is still used as the parliament building. Behind the austere exterior are beautiful inner courtyards and viewing platforms with panoramic views of the Old Town. Entrance to the parliament is possible with a guided tour upon prior registration.

Alexander Nevsky Cathedral

A majestic Orthodox cathedral with five domes that was built in 1895 - 1900. Inside you will find a richly decorated iconostasis, and outside - a point of attraction for tourists and photography enthusiasts. Despite the ambiguous attitude to its heritage, the cathedral is an integral part of the Tallinn landscape.

Dominican Monastery

One of the oldest monastic buildings in the Baltics, where time seems to have stopped. Rare books, ancient frescoes, and traces of the monks daily life are kept here. The atmosphere of silence and solitude makes the visit especially memorable. The entrance fee is 6 euros.

Kik in de Kok Tower and Bastion Dungeons

The name translates from Low German as "Look into the Kitchen" - a reference to the height from which the guards watched over the city. Today it is a museum where you can learn about the military history of Tallinn and walk along the preserved underground passages. You can visit the museum for 14 euros.

Town Hall Square and Tallinn Town Hall

The heart of the city, where life is in full swing at any time of year. Fairs, concerts, and outdoor cafes are held here in the summer. The Town Hall itself houses a museum that tells about medieval city life. Entrance is paid and will cost you 8 euros, with the option to climb the tower for an additional fee. This is a mandatory item on the program of any Tallinn city tour.

How to get to Tallinn

The easiest way to visit Tallinn is by plane. Lennart Meri Airport (EETN, TLL) is only 4 km from the city center. You can get to the Old Town by tram No. 4 or bus No. 2 - the trip will take no more than 15 minutes.

The Baltiysky railway station is located right at the foot of Toompea, just 10 minutes from the center. Trains to Tallinn run from Narva, Tartu and other Estonian cities. Although the train journey is picturesque, most tourists choose air travel as the fastest and most convenient.

The sea route is also available: ferries from Helsinki and Stockholm arrive at the port, from where it is convenient to get to the center on foot. This method is especially popular in the summer when cruise traffic between the Baltic countries is especially active.
