Activity itinerary

Tartu mnt 24 (Pass by)

Now that you’re in place next to the so-called cat well, linger on n°16 of the street opposite and more precisely on the top floor window, arch side. Don’t you notice something strange? Yes, openness is actually an illusion!

St. Nicholas' Church & Museum (Pass by)

It’s hard to believe, and yet true, St. Nicholas’ Church has already been in existence for several years. Dating back to the 18th, 16th and even 15th centuries, this estimate is far too timid, because it was in fact in the Middle Ages that this place of worship appeared.

Kiek in de Kok and Bastion Passages Museum (Pass by)

Kiek in de Kök, that’s a name that smells good about Estonia! But there it is, apart from being a local, it becomes difficult to know its meaning. It is therefore, dictionary in hand at Navaway, that we announce that these 4 little words translate as “peek in the kitchen”.

Toompea Castle (Pass by)

It is from the top of its limestone hill that Toompea Castle was for more than 800 years the seat of Estonian power. Since its inception, its coast has always been in good shape, since every empire that dominated the country has invested it as a base.

Alexander Nevsky Cathedral (Pass by)

Spectacular with its bulbous bell towers, witnesses to the standards of Russian religious art, Alexander Nevsky Cathedral can be seen from afar. Built in 1900, while Estonia was still part of the Soviet Empire, the building was mainly conceived as a symbol of domination, both religious and political tsarist.

St Mary's Cathedral (Pass by)

St Mary’s Cathedral, sometimes called the Dome, is said to be Tallinn’s oldest church, despite the division of historians over its origin and date of construction.

Patkuli Viewing Platform (Pass by)

The main interest when climbing a hill is often to find the best viewpoints. The one in Toompea, which you have just climbed, knows very well how to do it at this level! At the same time hidden and quiet, Patkuli’s viewpoint gives us a sensational setting that lends itself perfectly to Tallinn’s souvenir photo.

Viewing Point Kohtuotsa (Pass by)

First of all, come closer, and don’t be afraid of the void! More refocused than Patkuli’s, Kohtuotsa’s viewpoint is the second best place to capture Tallinn’s most beautiful features.

Toompea Hill (Pass by)

Being in Tallinn is simple, even a big child can do it. If you are not in its “lower town” of Vanalinn, then you are necessarily in its “upper town” of Toompea.

Nun Tower and Walls (Pass by)

Present on some parts of the Old Town, the ramparts are priceless fragments of Tallinn’s medieval character. First started under Danish occupation in the 13th century, and then continued under Swedish rule in the 16th century, the fortification system originally reached a length of 4 km.

St. Olaf’s Church (Pass by)

Here, it will not help you to project the gaze in the distance. What you need is the rising high skyward to capture all the verticality that characterises Saint-Olaf Church.

KGB Museum (Pass by)

In Tallinn, few people do not know about the KGB museum, its history, and the moment when everything went wrong. As so often at the beginning, everything is going well and nothing suspicious is to be noted.

Pikk tänav (Pass by)

As its name implies in Estonian, Pikk Street is the longest in the lower town. In the Middle Ages, a good number of artisans and traders lived and carried out their activities there.

Estonian History Museum - Great Guild Hall (Pass by)

Of all the charming buildings that make up Pikk Street, it has no difficulty in standing out from the crowd, began with its architecture. The typical medieval style, with its arched stained-glass windows and massive portal, would put us almost on the road to a 100% religious building.

Holy Spirit Church (Pass by)

While all the churches in Tallinn come together in their absolute white tint, each has had its own life course. Known as the smallest religious building in the Estonian capital, the Church of the Holy Spirit has occupied the same site since the 13th century.

Tallinna Raekoja Plats (Pass by)

The epicentre of the medieval city since the 11th century, the Raekoja dishes is the gathering place where all the inhabitants of Tallinn and passing travellers converge.

Town Hall Pharmacy (Pass by)

If Raekoja dishes is already a fully-fledged Attraction in Tallinn, its attendance is more than strengthened by the presence of this building nearby. At the same time, no one would want to miss the only well-preserved Gothic Inn in Northern Europe.

Town Hall Pharmacy (Pass by)

A small cough, a severe cold or a temporary pain? Bingo, this is the address you need! Open since 1422, this strange little shop around the corner from Raekoja dishes is actually the oldest pharmacy in Europe to still be operational in the same premises.

St. Catherine's Passage (Pass by)

Strolling through the centuries-old streets of Tallinn, we witness clues from different eras that help us understand what life here once looked like.

Viru Gates (Pass by)

Picturesque, even enchanting, Viru’s gates are often Tallinn’s first glimpse. This is also your case now! Their presence alone gives a rare testimony of what were the medieval gates of the defensive system of the city, built in the 14th century.

Vanalinn (Pass by)

Thriving in the Middle Ages, and triumphant on the trade routes of the Baltic Sea, the lower town has remained immutable since the 15th century. Certainly, good conservation has gone through this, but luck also has something to do with it.
