Talinn question

[cassandra321]

I read on one of the posts about some underground areas that are now open in Talinn. I can't find the post. Does anyone know about this and where is it located. It sounded fascinating.

We happened to visit this museum, but really didn't want to go thru the tunnels.

 

Tallin is a wonderful city with so mnay wonderful sights to see. If you need any other info on it, please ask away.

 

Here are a few pixs from around town. Maybe they can help

 

The "Kiek in the Kök" Museum

For those not familiar with the Bastion Tunnels here is a picture. These tunnels are several hundred meters long and some have not yet been cleared for visitors. Rumor has it that the entire old-town has a network of underground tunnels, but no-one knows for sure. If the museum is not open (it is going through a restoration process right now), the tunnels will probably be closed also.
