From Carnivals to Epidemics - daily life in medieval Tallinn

Friday 27. February at 12:00 - 13:30

Tallinn Town Hall

We are inviting you on a tour through Tallinn’s Old Town to uncover weird but fascinating details of medieval everyday life.

We’ll explore how people celebrated Shrovetide, how often they held feasts, and what happened to guests who overindulged. You'll hear about crimes — both serious and minor - and learn who had to wear the humiliating “stone of shame". Find out what illnesses were treated with "unicorn horn" and why some young men were known as the “Blackheads".

Tallinn’s medieval secrets are awaiting to be discovered. Come along, history has never been this entertaining...
