Red Tower, Pärnu

The Red Tower is Pärnu’s oldest structure. Built in the early 15th century, the corner tower of the city wall was both a fortification and a prison. The outer and inner walls of the stone tower were covered with red bricks, thereby inspiring the tower’s name.

Since November 2020, the tower houses a museum. In this fascinating building you can now get acquainted with the architecture of this ancient tower and the medieval town of New-Pärnu.
In the Red Tower’s panorama cinema, you can watch the animated film "Merciless and Merciful History. In the Red Tower through 15,000 years", which introduces Pärnu’s history. You will see how the surroundings of the city have changed and developed since the Ice Age, and find yourselves experiencing a series of symbolic and exciting historical events.

The ticket includes a panoramic cinema session and, if desired, a short introduction to the Red Tower by a museum employee.
