Kopli – a district of factories, the sea and stories
What happens when a former shipyard, a rubber factory, a workers’ settlement and a wild coastal landscape come together? Come and discover Kopli and the area around Põhjala Factory with Hannele, a local history enthusiast!
As part of Tallinn Design Festival, we’ll explore the grounds of the former Bekker Shipyard and today’s Põhjala Factory, discovering remarkable buildings and traces of Kopli’s industrial past. We’ll also explore the fascinating streets of Kopliranna, Sirbi and Kopli, visit the site of a former cemetery, and hear stories about the people who once lived and worked here.
The tour lasts approximately 1 hour 45 minutes. Kopli can be windy and the route includes varied terrain, so please wear comfortable shoes and dress appropriately for the weather.
Hannele has lived in Kopli and introduced the area to visitors for five years. Find out more at www.koplikandimatkad.ee.
