Niguliste church tower will soon be accessible by liftStunning landscapes will await visitors at the top of Niguliste church tower.

 

A new observation deck accessible by lift is currently near to being completed at the Niguliste church museum in Tallinn. The tower, which is located near the Adamson-Eric Museum, will offer a unique 360o view of Tallinn’s old town, bay, and beyond. The construction works are expected to be completed in the first half of this year.

The lift and observation deck will be accessible to all visitors of the Niguliste church museum. The traditional church tower stairs are also being restored and will be open to anyone who wants to climb to the top on their own. By climbing you will also get to learn all about the architecture and history of the tower at your own pace.
