About this experience
Tallinn began to actively develop and annex suburbs in the late XIX - early XX centuries. I will tell you how exactly this happened and show the landmarks of the past and present centuries that tourists usually do not see: Freedom Square, Kultuurkattel, Energy Museum, former spinning factory, Schnelli Park, and Soviet workshops.
