Briefly about the main thing:
"Tolstaya Margarita ["... the comic name of the gun tower [ with 155 loopholes], part of the Tallinn city wall, which it received for its impressive size — 25 meters in diameter at the bottom and 20 meters in height.
The thickness of the walls reaches 6.5 meters.
The tower was built in 1511-1530.
The tower housed an ammunition depot, an Admiralty depot and a barracks.
Since 1830, the tower has been used as a prison.
Now the Estonian Maritime Museum is located here"] - this is the most wonderful and sweet tower in the world, which gives you the opportunity to admire the amazing city from a small height.
And enjoy these moments!"...
The main thing in short is not for pensioners of law enforcement agencies:
"Walking along the ancient walls of the tower, you feel like the hero of a movie about medieval knights, you feel the breath of history...".
