Tallinn is the capital of Estonia and the most completely preserved medieval city in Northern Europe — a city of 460,000 inhabitants on the southern shore of the Gulf of Finland, 103km from Helsinki Airport (reached by ferry across the Gulf of Finland from Helsinki South Harbour, the most intensively used international passenger ferry route per capita in the world, with up to 15 daily ferry crossings carrying over 8 million passengers annually, the most extraordinary short-sea passenger ferry corridor in Europe), whose extraordinary Old Town (the Tallinn Old Town, UNESCO World Heritage Site, the most completely preserved medieval urban ensemble in Northern Europe, its 13th-15th century Hanseatic merchant townhouses, the most intact Gothic town hall in the Baltic, the most completely surviving medieval defensive ring of towers and walls in the Baltic region, and the extraordinary skyline of church spires and town hall tower giving Tallinn the most recognisable medieval silhouette of any city in the Baltic world) gives it a medieval heritage of world significance quite unmatched in the Baltic region.
Tallinn's most extraordinary historical identity is as a former Hanseatic League city (Tallinn — then Reval — was the most important Hanseatic trading port in the eastern Baltic, the gateway between the Baltic and the Russian hinterland, its merchant wealth funding the extraordinary Gothic architecture that still defines the Old Town). The Kiek in de Kök tower museum (the most dramatically named medieval tower in the Baltic — 'Peek in the Kitchen' in Low German, so called because the tower guards could look directly into the kitchen windows of the houses below, the finest medieval defensive tower museum in Estonia), the Kadriorg Palace (the Baroque palace built by Peter the Great of Russia for his wife Catherine after the conquest of Estonia in 1710, the most important Russian Imperial palace in the Baltic States, now housing the Estonian Art Museum's collection of European and Russian art) and the Tallinn Christmas Market (consistently voted the most beautiful Christmas market in Europe in reader polls, its medieval Town Hall Square setting the most atmospheric Christmas market location in the Baltic world) give the city an extraordinary cultural and historical range.
UNESCO Tallinn Old Town — Most Completely Preserved Medieval Urban Ensemble in Northern Europe: The Tallinn Old Town (UNESCO World Heritage, the most completely preserved medieval city in Northern Europe, its Hanseatic Gothic townhouses, the most intact Gothic town hall in the Baltic, and the most completely surviving medieval defensive ring of walls and towers in the region) gives Tallinn a medieval heritage of world significance — the finest and most atmospheric surviving Hanseatic trading city in the eastern Baltic world.
Helsinki-Tallinn Ferry — Most Intensively Used International Passenger Ferry Route Per Capita in the World: The Helsinki-Tallinn ferry crossing (up to 15 daily crossings, 8+ million passengers annually, the most intensively used international passenger ferry corridor in Europe) makes Tallinn uniquely accessible from Helsinki — a 2-3 hour high-speed ferry or 2.5-hour conventional ferry connecting two UNESCO-recognised capitals across the Gulf of Finland, the most celebrated twin-capital ferry route in the world.
