Tallinn

Just across the Baltic Sea, a mere 60kms (37 miles) from Helsinki, Finland, lies the town of Tallinn. Touted as the 'New Prague' of Europe, the capital of Estonia has been an important maritime trading hub since it was established in the 12th century.

Religion In Estonia

Since the 16th century, Estonia has been a predominantly protestant (Lutheran) country. Baltic Germans built most of the country’s churches. Up until the 19th century, the church was the only source of education in the countryside and few villages are without an architecturally impressive church at its centre.
