Tallinn TV Tower

Tallinn TV Tower is the heart of ground-breaking events!
Tallinn TV Tower was built in 1980 for the Summer Olympics in Moscow, and on 20 August 1991 it became one of the most important symbols of the restoration of Estonian independence, when people from all over Estonia came to defend the tower. You can find out more about the history of the TV tower on our website.
At the tower there is a permanent exhibition about the tower's history, Dolores Hoffmann's stained glass, periscopic screens, and a virtual flight around the TV Tower.

You can also find temporary guest exhibitions at the TV Tower.
