The Kiek in de Kök Fortress Museum offers a tour of the bastions and underground passageways, but also, exceptionally, of one of the tunnels of the Lindamäe Hill which is rarely accessible to the public

While visiting the bastions of Harjumäe and Lindamäe we talk about the exciting things that have happened there over the years.

The earthen fortifications also know as the bastion complex were built at the end of the 17th century. In the underground tunnels, there is an exhibition that is a kind of time travel – from the present day to the 17th century, when earthworks began to be built. We find out why they built such massive artificial mounds, surrounded by thick stone walls with tunnels at the bottom. We learn that over the ages these passages have been used in different ways and by different people. Today, spiders live here and bats hibernate.

Please note that…

  • The temperature in the bastion passages and the tunnel section at the base of Lindamäe is +10 to +12 degrees all year round
  • The stairs in the bastion passages are of uneven height in places and can be slippery
  • Due to the nature of the historical structure, it is not possible to move around in a wheelchair
  • We do not recommend this tour for people who have a fear of enclosed spaces, balance problems or dizziness

The minimum number of participants in a group is 5 people and the maximum is 30 people. If there are fewer participants, the price of the excursion will be calculated based on the minimum number of participants (5 people).
