Tallinn Bastion Tunnels

Bastioni Tunnelid

Underneath the Toompea bastions is a network of tunnels. Several hundred meters of which has been cleared for visitors. Rumor has it that the entire old-town has a network of underground tunnels, but no-one knows for sure.

The final section of this particular tunnel is still flooded, this section is cut off by the "Mayeri trepp" (a staircase going up the hill).
