Well worth visiting Toompea Hill, if only for the views out over the Old Town from three different viewing points. The Russian church is also there and is truly magnificent, and there are great views of the medieval wall and towers.

According to the legend, the whole hill of Toompea was heaped up, stone by stone, by Linda the mythological mother of the Estonian nation.Toompea is also famous because of its many notable sites, very popular among tourists: the Castle, the stunning Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the Cathedral of Saint Mary the Virgin (aka the Dome Church) and others.Moreover you can relax at the Hirve Park or enjoying nice views of the Tallin from several viewing platforms.

Very hilly as the name mentioned. You get to view the Old Town from the hill as well as neighbouring districts. Worth the visit if you are photogenic.

This along with the lower town below are MUSTS for Tallinn. Here you will experience a variety of of different sites to consume. The Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, Toompea Castle, the lookouts and views of the sprawling city below. The artisans displaying their wares, the roasted almonds, bicycling beverage maids.

Stayed in Old Town at St Peterbourg Hotel late October and really enjoyed the walks in TAllinn, particularly the walk up Toompea and its surrounds.Magnificent views from many outlooks and magical alleys and streets, shops and sites. Also the walk around the walls and those gardens where the moat originally protected the hill were a delight to do in the freezing weather.Very little open at The top but those shops that were open provided lots of bargains.TAllinn is magnificent and the Old Town including Toompea are stunning. Tallinn far exceeded all expectations and I did lots of research. Give yourself plenty of time to explore and enjoy its offerings.

To see the Dome Church, the oldest church in Tallinn, and the Alexander Nevski cathedral (currently under Renovation) you must walk uphill quite a bit. The cobble stone roads can be a challenge in winter weather. The sights are worth it though. Don't miss the cafes and creative shops along the way.

Toompea Hill provides an excellent panorama view of Old Town and of the rest of modern day Tallinn, including the harbor area of ferries leaving to other countries across the Gulf of Finland. Know that there are several viewing sites and you should try to find them all by walking the paths.

Great view of old town and new town in the same time. It is big contrast to see old town and new high buildings next to each other. But interesting for my opinion. And walk up is very nice one. You can choose stairs or walk from old town.

A must is to visit Toompea Hill. You will find the German Ambassador Residence, the Finnish and French and Canadian Embassy, the beautiful russian Church Aleksander Nevski (which is a MUST to visit) and the Cathedral St. Mary or also named Dome Church, which was build in 13th century by the Danes.Inside you will find plenty of coats-of-arms and different kind of tombstones. There is also the "paperless" Parliament situated and plenty of beautiful old buildings and three platforms where you can have a look at the sea, the Old Town and "Pelguranna" area.

As our cruise ship was being piloted into Tallinn, we could see Toompea Hill. We took a tour that let us walk around this medieval heart of Tallinn, with it's cobblestone streets, amphitheater, Russian Orthadox Cathedral, Toompea Castle, the salmon-colored (pink?) Estonian Parliament building, and St. Mary's Cathedral. You can tour both the Russian Orthadox and St. Mary's Cathedrals. You also get views of the City Wall and some of the guard towers, built in the 13th Century. You won't regret visiting this wonderful place, I promise! Many photo ops, a few restaurants, venders, and souvenir shops, but not overdone.

Toompea Hill is easiest to get to from Old Town. We walked around the outside of Old Town, which ended up being the long way, but we did get to see some of the other sites and modern buildings nearby. Dont expect to spend too much time here, as it's mostly a viewing location more than anything else.They had an archery display challenge set up outside. For a price, you get to shoot at a target. There is a daily high score.

During winter when Tallinn is covered in snow this is an especially nice place to see out over the old town. Its a short climb from the main square and although there isn't much to do up there the cathedral is there to so its worth the walk.
