Overview

Join us for a fascinating stroll around Old Town, where we'll witness preserved sites and delve into the lives of earlier generations.

We'll see a wealthy merchant's house, the old pharmacy, the marketplace, the knights' area, churches, Town Hall, artisans' and merchants' guild halls, and, of course, the city wall & towers.

Learn who lived in the upper and lower towns, who didn't pay fees to enter the city, how people treated drunkenness, the price of black pepper, why some young men were called Blackheads, and the meaning behind the medieval proverb "Town's air makes anyone free”.

On this tour, we'll uncover different aspects of life in medieval Tallinn. Don't miss out.
