Recommended translations for Tallinn’s tourist sights

15.02.2012

In the past, the translations of Tallinn’s tourist sights have not been uniform, and this has confused tourists and caused controversy among tourism professionals.

The Tallinn City Tourist Office & Convention Bureau is aware of this problem and has therefore compiled a list with recommended translations for all the city’s major tourist sights. This list includes names in English, German, Russian, Finnish and Swedish for churches, various historical buildings and museums.

This list has been developed with the help of the sight’s administrators, translators, and editors, as well as experienced guides and the staff of the city’s archives. It represents the Tallinn City Tourist Office’s & Convention Bureau’s position on the given issue, and we would appreciate the use of these translations in all publications describing Tallinn’s tourist attractions.
