Tallinn Town Hall, Gothic town hall in Vanalinn district, Estonia

The Town Hall rises with its 64-meter tower crowned by the Old Thomas weathervane, displaying its centuries-old stone walls and gothic windows.

The Town Hall, first documented in 1322, served as the center of municipal power until 1970, managing political and economic activities of medieval Tallinn.

The Citizens' Hall contains medieval wooden carvings depicting tales of Tristan and Isolde, along with representations of Samson fighting a lion.

The building now functions as a ceremonial venue for the city government, hosting chamber concerts and official ceremonies in its historical halls.

Three original walls and seven windows from the 13th century structure remain intact, representing the oldest preserved secular architecture in Tallinn.
