The tower and observation deck of St. Olav's Church
The observation deck of St. Olav's Church is one of Tallinn’s most impressive landmarks. Climb 232 steps and take in the bird's-eye view of Old Town and beyond. Enjoy the breathtaking view from the tower, where the historic red roofs blend with the modern cityscape.
The tower is part of St. Olav's Church, a true architectural gem. This magnificent Gothic-style sanctuary is worth a visit for its peaceful atmosphere and powerful presence. A visit to St. Olav's Church offers a historical experience and exceptional views of Tallinn.
