On this short 1 hour tour you are going to see towers, city walls and historical buildings of Tallinn Old Town, have panoramic view over old buildings from higher places and you'll also get some idea of prices in cafes and restaurants in July 2020. Despite the silent video you'll have plenty of possibilities for reading about some of the towers along the road or other historical building from 14th century right on those buildings.
We are starting walking in front of Monastery Gate. To the right of the gate you can see Nun's Tower and after entering the gate we turn to see Sauna Tower from inside city walls. Next to it across the open space lies one of the oldest secondary schools not only in Estonia but in whole Europe. Established in 1631 by Swedish king Gustav II Adolf as Reval Gymnasium it is now called Gustav Adolf Grammar School. Continue walking and you'll see Golden Leg Tower, Tower behind Nuns (just after the roof of pink house), Loewenschede Tower. Cannot see Lippe Tower as it is destroyed but we take passage beside Lippe Tower and turning to the right we'll see Rope Hill Tower. After some steps in park we are returning inside historical area through breakthrough of Suurtüki street, to the left of it from outside will see Plate Tower and inside city walls continue with Epping Tower and Tower behind Grusbeke. Camera catches a bit later not very tall Tower behind Wulfard. We are going out from Old Town through Great Coastal Gate and when return inside have a view on Fat Margaret Tower. Next steps will be only inside historical Old Town starting from Pikk street where we turn to the lower city area when exploring Olevimägi street.
