Tallinn Town Hall is the oldest city hall in North-Europe. In 2022, Tallinn Town Hall celebrated the 700th anniversary of its first mention in 1322. The story of the building dates back to the 13th century and it was completed, in its current form, in 1404.
The magnificent Gothic arches, the unique wood carvings, tapestry, and paintings reflect the wealth and ideals of the former Hanseatic town. The works of art in the Town Hall were also an example of fair judgement for the aldermen because until the 13th-19th century the Town Hall was a courthouse.

The city hall is lovely and we enjoyed our view of it from the big square. It is classic old architecture and a big part of the old city, so it is one of the places that you will want to see.
The Tallinn town hall is definitely one of the highlights of the beautiful city of Tallinn, we went inside for a drink and it is still very authentic to the time period, definitely worth a visit.
What a beautiful building with some interesting history, worth a visit if in Tallinn even if just to pass by and take in the architecture.
