What people are saying:
Near Tallinn’s old city wall, also called Maiden’s Tower, you can see three bronze statues of black-clothed headless monks. They have different postures and represent different meanings: the guard on the second floor is called guardian, and the one who stretches out his hands is called giving. , Putting your hands together is called prayer. These statues have no faces, they express people's awe of the unknown.

The Dominican Monastery is located in a warm and comfortable courtyard, accessible along an arched passage. The monastery was built in 1246 and was the base of Nordic monks at that time. Here is the largest collection of stone carvings in Estonia, and concerts and mysterious events are often held.
Very beautiful scenery, worth a visit (๑><๑)
The monastery is the oldest building in the city and houses the largest exhibition of stone carvings in Estonia.
The Dominican Monastery is the oldest building in the city. The structure of the building is a typical Catholic monastery. It’s a very hidden place. It took me an hour to find here. This monastery has a long history and an indescribable sense of mystery.
