Highlights
Walk along Tallinn’s seafront, from Noblessner to the Cruise Terminal, tracing its long, complicated relationship with the water. Once a military-industrial frontier, closed off and controlled, today it is a city rediscovering its shoreline. Pass Patarei Sea Fortress, first built to defend the empire, later used to imprison its own people. Stand atop Linnahall, a Soviet monument to ambition—grand, imposing, and now fading into memory. Moving along the shore, see how the city is opening itself to the sea once more, replacing old barriers with promenades, harbors, and open horizons. The waterfront is a place of shifting tides, not just of water, but of history. Walk through its past, its present, and the future taking shape before you.

About Tallinn
Tallinn is Estonia's capital on the Baltic, a medieval walled old town of towers, spires and cobbled lanes with a modern harbour beside it.
Tallinn's old town, a World Heritage site, sits on a limestone hill above the harbour, ringed by medieval walls and towers and divided into the upper town on Toompea and the lower town of merchants. The Hanseatic trading city grew rich in the Middle Ages, and Town Hall Square has what is described as the only surviving Gothic town hall in northern Europe, with a weather vane in the shape of Old Thomas. St Olaf's Church, once among the tallest buildings in Europe, rises above the roofs.
