In the Middle Ages, Tallinn had one of the greatest and strongest defence systems in Northern Europe. Now its been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is considered one the best preserved medieval towns. On this tour we'll walk along the city wall and will see all its surviving parts. We will discuss different kinds of towers and know the history and secrets behind the construction of the wall and 17-th bastions. On the tour you will know how people measured the distance between towers in that time and why they began to build bastions, who were the people that lived in the lower and upper towns, how horse thieves were punished and what medicines were used to treat drunkenness . . Don't miss out!
- At first, we will begin by meeting you at your hotel or lodging, or if you prefer we could just directly gather at Freedom square. - After covering the gate, we'll proceed to visit Helleman's tower and wall passage. - Next, we'll be moving on along the wall to the Great Coastal Gate. - Later, we'll find ourselves walking in the direction of Kiek in de Kök tower. - Afterwards, you'll have the opportunity to see and discuss the 17-th century Bastions. - At last, we finish our tour at Town Hall square, where I'll tell you about town councillors, medieval punishments and medicine. Then I introduce you to a nice medieval tavern with old-time soup and snacks.
