Pictures of Tallinn vol 1
Found photos of my hometown lying around, so I decided to share it with you guys.
Really hope that you enjoy those and visit this beautiful city at least once in your lifetime :)
Tallinn was founded in 1248, but the earliest human settlements date back 5,000 years, making it one of the oldest capital cities of Northern Europe. The initial claim over the land was laid by the Danes in 1219 after a successful raid of Lyndanisse led by Valdemar II of Denmark, followed by a period of alternating Scandinavian and German rule.
Due to its strategic location, the city became a major trade hub, especially from the 14th to the 16th century, when it grew in importance as part of the Hanseatic League. -Wikipedia
