Old Tallinn and it's Medieval Past
Joined 2024
Join us for a fascinating stroll around Old Town.
We'll explore a merchant's house, the old pharmacy, the knights and nobility area, churches, Town Hall, artisans' and merchants' guild halls, and even the executioner's house.
Learn who lived in the upper and lower towns, who paid fees to enter the city, 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."
Don't miss out.
