Tallinn, Estonia - Linnahall (2018)
Linnahall (Estonian: Tallinna Linnahall, 'Tallinn City Hall') (originally the V. I. Lenin Palace of Culture and Sport) is a multi-purpose venue in Tallinn, Estonia. It is situated on the harbour, just beyond the walls of the Old Town and was completed in 1980. It is not to be confused with the primary administrative building of the municipal government (Raad) of Tallinn, sometimes referred to as the Town Hall. The venue also features a heliport, with service to Helsinki, and a small port for Linda Line catamarans.
Tallinn is the capital and largest city of Estonia. It is situated on the northern coast of the country, on the shore of the Gulf of Finland in Harju County. From the 13th century until 1918 (and briefly during the Nazi occupation of Estonia from 1941 to 1944), in languages other than Estonian, the city was known as Reval. Tallinn occupies an area of 159.2 km2 (61.5 sq mi) and has a population of 450,305.
Tallinn, first mentioned in 1219, received city rights in 1248, but the earliest human settlements date back 5,000 years. The initial claim over the land was laid by the Danes in 1219, after a successful raid of Lyndanisse led by Valdemar II of Denmark, followed by a period of alternating Scandinavian and German rule. Due to its strategic location, the city became a major trade hub, especially from the 14th to the 16th century, when it grew in importance as part of the Hanseatic League.
Tallinn's Old Town is one of the best preserved medieval cities in Europe and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Tallinn is the major political, financial, cultural and educational center of Estonia. Often dubbed the Silicon Valley of Europe, it has the highest number of startups per person in Europe and is a birthplace of many international companies, including Skype. The city is to house the headquarters of the European Union's IT agency. Providing to the global cybersecurity it is the home to the NATO Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence. It is ranked as a global city and has been listed among the top 10 digital cities in the world. According to the Global Financial Centres Index Tallinn is the most competitive financial hub in Northern Europe and ranks 42nd internationally. The city was a European Capital of Culture for 2011, along with Turku in Finland.

Part 4. Tallinn Estonia. Linnahall. Formally V.I. Lenin Palace of Culture and Sports

Built to host the 1980 Summer Olympics. Moscow lacked a suitable venue for sailing events and at the time Tallinn, the capital of Estonia SSR was a better suited location.

????????Abandoned Olympics Venue in Tallinn Estonia
Linnahall (originally the V. I. Lenin Palace of Culture and Sports) is a multi-purpose venue in Tallinn, Estonia. It is situated in the harbour, just beyond the walls of the Old Town, and was completed in 1980.
When Moscow hosted the 1980 Summer Olympics, the sailing events were held in Soviet-occupied Estonia. Linnahall, originally called the “V. I. Lenin Palace of Culture and Sport,” is a sprawling ziggurat-like complex designed to host the Olympic regatta. Today, it’s all but abandoned, and mostly visited by graffiti artists and curious tourists.

Media & Information Literacy Project Lab in Tallinn, Estonia
SALTO Participation and Information Resource Centre (SALTO PI) started a project on Media and Information Literacy (MIL) and is developing a set of activities and resources to improve MIL skills of young people, youth activists, youth leaders and youth workers.
On the 28th–30th of August 2019, about 40 participants from 27 countries came together in Tallinn to meet media experts, learn about Media and Information Literacy, share ideas and experiences and develop their ideas for real projects that could make a difference! Participants hacked MIL and came up with useful, practical and creative project ideas and concepts on MIL.
Those with existing ideas would further develop their concepts and project plans to increase the chances of funding. The programme is being developed together with National Agencies, Erasmus+ advisors, Media and Information Literacy experts.

Abandoned City Hall in Estonia. Adventure #34
This was my first really good explore in Europe and I really did not disappoint. I found this abandoned city hall right downtown in the capital city of Estonia. In the end I did set off the alarm unfortunately so I had to get out of there a little sooner than anticipated but I couldn't risk getting into trouble abroad. One of the craziest parts was finding a gas mask at this location. Its crazy to see things like that because these countries have been destroyed many times by war.
Explore Estonia | Where Bicycling and Drinking is Illegal
Explore Estonia | Where Bicycling and Drinking is Illegal
Welcome to my channel and this week’s video is about Explore Estonia, Where Bicycling and Drinking is Illegal even just 1 beer.
Estonia doesn’t have to struggle to find a point of difference; it’s completely unique. It shares a similar geography and history with Latvia and Lithuania, but culturally it’s distinct.
Its closest ethnic and linguistic buddy is Finland, though 50 years of Soviet rule in Estonia have separated the two.
For the last 300 years Estonia has been linked to Russia, but the two states have as much in common as a barn swallow and a bear (their respective national symbols).
With a newfound confidence, singular Estonia has crept from under the Soviet blanket and leapt into the arms of Europe. The love affair is mutual. Europe has fallen head over heels for the charms of Tallinn and its Unesco-protected Old Town.
Put simply, Tallinn is now one of the continent’s most captivating cities. And in overcrowded Europe, Estonia’s sparsely populated countryside and extensive swathes of forest provide spiritual sustenance for nature-lovers.
In this Estonia Travel Vlog 2020, I will explain you about How to Travel to Estonia? Tips for Estonia travel budget, Estonia top attractions, Things to see and do in Estonia. Best places to visit in Estonia. This is Estonia Travel reviews for your future Estonia Vacation planning.

Tallinn CITY HALL | Tallinna Linnahall | Горхолл Таллина
Linnahall (Estonian: Tallinna Linnahall, 'Tallinn City Hall') (originally the V. I. Lenin Palace of Culture and Sport) is a multi-purpose venue in Tallinn, Estonia. It is situated on the harbour, just beyond the walls of the Old Town and was completed in 1980. It is not to be confused with the primary administrative building of the municipal government (Raad) of Tallinn, sometimes referred to as the Town Hall. The venue also features a heliport, with service to Helsinki, and a small port for Linda Line catamarans.
The 1980 Summer Olympics were hosted in Moscow in 1980. As inland Moscow had no suitable venue at which to stage the sailing event this task fell to Tallinn, the capital of then Estonian SSR. Apart from the main venue for the sailing event, Pirita Yachting Centre, a lot of other sports and entertainment facilities were built during preparations for the Olympics. One of them was V. I. Lenin Palace of Culture and Sport, which was later renamed to its present name - Linnahall. A large concrete structure, architects of Linnahall are Raine Karp and Riina Altmäe.
The ice hall part of the venue closed in 2009 and the concert hall closed in 2010. The city searched for Investors from 2009-2015 and in 2015 Tallinn city council decided to renovate Linnahall. Analysis by experts, project description, procurement for design and construction services started in 2015 and is expected to be finalized in 2017. Renovation and construction is planned for 2018-2019 and scheduled to reopen sometime in 2019. All of this is stated on a sign outside the hall. Video of the future project:

[RUS] Горхо́лл (городской холл, эст. Tallinna Linnahall) — культурно-спортивный комплекс в Таллине, Эстония. Расположен на берегу залива, рядом с Пассажирским портом и в непосредственной близости от стен старого города Таллина. Строительство завершилось в 1980 году, к открытию летней Олимпиады. Не следует путать Горхолл с административным зданием муниципального правления — Таллинской ратушей, несмотря на то, что в английском переводе иногда его называют Town Hall.
22-е Летние Олимпийские Игры проводились в Москве в 1980 году. Поскольку материковая Москва не имела подходящих сооружений для проведения парусных состязаний, миссию проведения олимпийской регаты возложили на Таллин, столицу Эстонской ССР. Началась масштабная реализация множества инфраструктурных, жилищных, инженерно-технических, транспортных, спортивных и общественно-культурных проектов. Одним из них стал Дворец Культуры и Спорта им. В. И. Ленина, с закрепившимся позднее названием — Горхолл. Массивное железо-бетонное сооружение гармонично вписалось в береговую линию, не нарушая целостности открывающейся с залива панорамы исторической части города. При облицовке использован камень известняковых и доломитных пород местного происхождения. Главныe архитекторы проекта — Райне Карп, Рийна Алтмяэ и Юло Сирп. В составе коллектива, работавшего над созданием и воплощением проекта, они в 1984 г. были награждены Государственной премией СССР.
Комплекс также оборудован вертолётной площадкой, Tallinn Linnahall Heliport, откуда совершались регулярные полёты в Хельсинки компанией Copterline, и небольшим портом для катеров компании Linda Line.
Находится в заброшенном состоянии. Проект реконструкции можно посмотреть здесь:
