Tallinn Town Hall

Visited with hubby and teenage daughter. Spent longer in there than we thought we would. Found it interesting but we're history nerds. Others, probably nipped round quicker. Good view across old town square from top floor. Didn't climb the tower - too many stairs!

The Tallinn town hall is your typical museum setup. Info about the old town since the 1300s. Not much to say about that. The tower was pretty cool though. Got to go up to the bell and see the city from there. Not sure if the €20 was worth it.

This old town feels like stepping straight into a fairy tale – except instead of a dragon, you’re most likely to bump into a tourist wielding a selfie stick. Narrow cobblestone streets twist between colorful medieval buildings, and no matter which way you go, the town hall finds a way to peek at you from somewhere – like it’s playing hide and seek, and always winning. The atmosphere takes care of itself. While you're sipping coffee or nibbling on a local pastry, a horse-drawn cart might gently roll by, and someone in medieval costume could pop around the corner. For the tourists? For fun? Or maybe just a lost time traveler. Who’s to say. Town hall itself is a Gothic masterpiece from the 14th century, and it still holds court with pride. If Tallinn does one thing exceptionally well, it's blending history with charm. And if you find yourself taking photos of the same tower from every imaginable angle… trust me, you’re not alone. This place does that to people.

Great view from the top of tower (35 meters high). Nearby food market is a great place to relax during summer.

A must-see historical gem in the heart of Tallinn! The Tallinn Town Hall is an incredibly well-preserved medieval building with stunning Gothic architecture. Located right in the center of the Old Town, it’s hard to miss and worth spending time to admire both from the outside and inside. The square around it is lively with cafes and street performers, making the experience even more special. Highly recommended for history lovers and photographers alike!

The UNESCO World Heritage site is beautifully maintained. I love walking through this historic town especially at quieter areas.

The dragons on the walls are incredibly cute, and the architecture will remind you of Disney’s How to Train Your Dragon. Tallinn is a little slice of paradise on Earth — smaller than other Nordic capitals, but so much more welcoming and charming.
