A demon lurking in an old well. A bag of gold that turns to horse dung at the Devil's Wedding. And the world's oldest national flag, said to have fallen from the sky right here in Tallinn. This self-guided audio walking tour takes you through 15 stops across Tallinn's medieval Old Town, from the ghost monks of the Danish King's Garden to the 600-year-old pharmacy that once sold mummy juice and powdered unicorn horn.
You'll hear the legend of how a giant's grieving wife built an entire hill from stones, discover why a painted window on Rataskaevu Street has stayed sealed for centuries, and walk the cobblestoned streets where Hanseatic merchants once shaped Northern Europe's trade routes.
