Fat Margaret Tower – Guardian of Tallinn’s Old Town 🛡️

#postandearn #attractive Standing tall at the entrance of Tallinn’s Old Town, Fat Margaret Tower is one of the most iconic symbols of the city’s medieval defenses. Built in the early 16th century, this massive round cannon tower was designed to protect the bustling harbor and impress visitors arriving by sea. Today, it houses the Estonian Maritime Museum, where travelers can explore fascinating exhibitions about seafaring history, shipbuilding, and Tallinn’s maritime heritage. Its thick stone walls, panoramic rooftop views, and strategic location make it a favorite for both history lovers and photographers. A walk around Fat Margaret is not just a glimpse into Tallinn’s medieval past, but also a chance to dive deep into Estonia’s rich connection with the sea. #postandearn #fatmargaret #tallinnoldtown #estoniatravel #medievaltallinn #maritimeheritage
