Lonely Planet review for Dominican Monastery
From Vene tänav, an arched doorway leads into a cosy courtyard and the world of the Dominican Monastery , founded in 1246 as a base for Scandinavian monks. Today the monastery complex houses Estonia's largest collection of very impressive stone carvings, which leave an impression on visitors eager to catch a glimpse of Medieval-looking life; there are often concerts and mysterious activities taking place there.
