Tallinn

House on Tartu mnt.

  Tartu mnt. 24     more than a year ago

Tallinn was never given the gift of one of those colossal, multi-tiered wedding cake buildings that were so praised during the Soviet 1950s (Riga and Warsaw were not so lucky). Instead, it has a much smaller corner building built in a similar style, with a spire and star at the top. There’s nothing special about the house itself (it was just a residential building), but it is the strongest representative of that style in Tallinn. You can find it by going to the Stockmann department store and looking across the road, or try to pick it out in the skyline when gazing out over Tallinn from the lookout on Toompea hill.
