What To Expect

Toompea Castle

Discover the ancient Toompea Castle, a fortress of resilience that has stood since the 9th century, if not earlier. Its foundations date back to the 13th century, a result of the Danish conquest in 1219. Today, the castle presents a diverse array of architectural styles that tell the story of its complex history, starting from its medieval core to later additions. The most renowned part of the castle is the Tall Hermann tower, an important symbol of national pride. The flag that waves atop this tower not only represents the current ruling power but also Estonia's independence.
