Why locals love it?

It's a church completed in 1230 that nowadays operates only as a museum and concert hall. At Christmas time even locals might find themselves here. The museum features artworks spanning seven centuries and is in itself a remarkable example of medieval architecture.

Why you should visit it

Have you heard of the famous painting, “ The Dance of Death”? By Bernt Notke, the famous German artist? Born in the 15th century? No? Well fine, we must admit we only know the death dance painting because it's right here in Tallinn. The painting also features a bunch of skeletons, which we think are kind of cool.

Special tip

Tickets are €3.50 or €2 if you're a student, but find out when their €1 Wednesdays are.
