Strange Medieval Times
Overview of your Tallinn tour
On this walk through Tallinn Old Town we will discover its highlights and uncover the strange but fascinating life of the Middle Ages. You will learn how often merchants held parties — and what happened to guests who drank too much. Who had to wear the humiliating “Stone of Shame” and why stabbings were so common in those days. Which illnesses were treated with “unicorn horn,” what remedy was believed to cure a broken heart, and why some young men were known as the “Blackheads.” Come along — medieval stories are awaiting to be told!
