Gonsiori 21, Architectural monument in central Tallinn, Estonia
Gonsiori 21 is an architectural monument in central Tallinn with a structured facade featuring pilasters and a dolomite portal. The building displays strong cornices along its street-facing side and currently serves as a media center.
The building served as the headquarters of Estonian Radio for many years and became the home of Estonian Public Broadcasting in 2007. This shift marked an important transition in Estonia's broadcasting infrastructure and media operations.
The building houses media offices and is known locally as 'Uus raadiomaja', reflecting its long connection to broadcasting services in the city.
The building sits in the city center and is easy to spot from the main Gonsiori street. Visitors should note that it remains an active media workplace, so interior access may be limited or require permission.
The name 'Uus raadiomaja' literally means 'New Radio House' and refers to when it was built as Estonia's most modern broadcasting facility. Despite its age, the building keeps this name, showing how deeply connected it remains to its original purpose.
