The observation deck located on Kohtu Street, along with Tallinn's most popular attractions, is one of the city's most visited places. The view from here truly is breathtaking!
So that you can not only idly “gaze” around, but also understand exactly what you are seeing in front of you, here is a small hint - let your gaze move from right to left, and you will see:
The tall spire of Niguliste – a former Lutheran church that today houses a museum and an organ concert hall. The tower of Tallinn Town Hall – at the top of the former city administration building there is still a weather vane that townspeople nicknamed “Old Thomas.” The Church of the Holy Spirit – one of the oldest churches in Tallinn. St. Olaf's Church - from 1550 to 1625, at 159 meters tall, it was the tallest building in the world! The current height of this church is 124 meters, which, you must admit, is also quite a lot for the low-rise buildings of the Old Town. The Church of the Transfiguration of Our Lord – you will recognize it by its semicircular dome and Baroque spire decorated with golden spheres.
