Tallinn Town Hall, first mentioned in 1322, is the oldest surviving Gothic town hall in Northern Europe. Its current two-story form was completed in 1402–1404, when Tallinn was a powerful Hanseatic trading city. In the Middle Ages, the Town Hall served as the seat of government, court, and a trading hub. The architecture features arched façade windows, a Gothic interior, and a 64-meter tower with a pointed roof. At its top stands “Old Thomas” (Vana Toomas), a weather vane placed in 1530 that became a symbol of the city. The arcade gallery sheltered merchants from rain, while the grand halls reflected the city’s wealth. Since 1970, the building has no longer served administrative purposes but functions as a museum and a venue for concerts and exhibitions, remaining one of Tallinn’s most prominent historical symbols.
