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...".

It was previously part of the fortress wall. It was built in the 1500s. It looks great. You definitely need to visit

The museum's exposition is built around the remains of a medieval cogg. Lots of interactive activities for kids.

A delightful museum of the sea. 5 floors of exhibits. In the center is a part of an ancient ship. It impresses with its monumentality.
