The mysterious, rambling, triangular, shape towering above the trees next to Pirita River belongs to the ruins of St. Bridget's Convent. Founded in 1407 as part of a Swedish religious order, St. Bridget's was the largest convent in the Livonian territories. It operated until the forces of Ivan the Terrible destroyed it during the Livonian war in 1577.

In addition to its 35-metre gabled façade, visitors to the ruins can see several walls, staircases and cellars, as well as a farmer's cemetery developed here in the 17th century.

The walls of the main structure are still standing, making it an excellent venue for outdoor performances. 

Nearby is the modern building of the St. Bridgettine Order, who re-established a convent here in 2001. Entrance to the ruins with Tallinn Card free of charge.
