Great show! Tells 7 different legends of Tallinn. The only downside was that it was sometimes hard do understand due to the accent of the actors. But I would still recommend :)

This is one of our favourite "museums" in Tallinn. During the interactive show you can learn about the history of the city and how it grew to be one you can see nowadays. It is based on the old myths and legends and talks about the past with reveling the secrets behind the curtain of old beliefs.
