The medieval defensive walls surrounded the city, and many parts of the wall, as well as the gates, still exist today. The Walls of Tallinn hold within it Tallinn’s Old Town, making both the town and the walls a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors can explore one of Europe’s best-preserved medieval fortifications and take in its fairytale charm while walking the distance of the wall and viewing the twenty defensive towers that still stand today.
