Tallinn gained Lübeck city rights in 1248, gaining admission to the Hanseatic League of European cities. Tallinn Day commemorates this historical event with a day full of cultural and fun activities. In 2019, the focus will be on the Estonian language.
Some of the highlights of this year's event will include free entrance to all the different branches of the Tallinn City Museum including their main building, the Kiek in de Kök Fortifications Museum, the Museum of Photography, the Children's Museum Miiamilla, and the House of Peter the Great. A free concert will take place on Vabaduse väljak providing an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in Estonian language and culture.
