You will visit the Gothic Town Hall, the Toompea Castle and The Rotermann Quarter. Conveniently, most of these sights are clustered together in Old Town, making them easy to fit into a tight itinerary.

Toompea Castle and Pikk Hermann Tower has been the seat of power since the German Knights of the Sword first built a stone fortress here in 1227-29. A large part of what gives Old Town its character is the system of walls and towers that surrounds medieval Tallinn. The current outline of the wall dates to the 14th century. Cathedral of St Mary the Virgin (Dome Church) standing at the centre of Toompea hill is the main Lutheran church in Estonia. Historically this was the church of Estonia's elite German nobles, a fact that becomes clear once you step through the doors. Town Hall Square has been the hub of Old Town for the last eight centuries. Today, the square remains the social heart of the city, a venue for open-air concerts, handicraft fairs and Medieval markets. St. Olav’s Church and Tower was once the tallest building in the world. St. Catherine’s Passage & Masters’ Courtyard is one of the the most photogenic of Old Town’s lanes. The street is home to the St. Catherine's Guild, a collection of craft shops where artists create and sell hats, quilts, ceramics, hand-painted silk and other wares. Freedom Squarehas always been a place of national symbolism and civic pride, as well as a favourite public gathering spot. The Rotermann Centre is a trendy shopping and cultural zone, with its central square that's home to an open-air markets, festivals and concerts. Kadriorg Palace with its’ surrounding manicured gardens is home to the foreign art collection of the Art Museum of Estonia.
