Photos of Haapsalu, Estonia
Photos in Album: 79
Welcome to Haapsalu, a town on the far western shore of Estonia. Haapsalu is an old town which dates back to 1279. My only regret is that I did not also tour the islands, especially Saaremaa, but then again, that gives me a reason to come back again.
This is the castle ruins in the center of town.
This map shows a number of the interesting buildings to be seen here.

This is the chapel inside the castle
These are photos taken inside the castle walls

This is the famous "Tsaichovsky Singing Bench" - it wasn't working when I was there, unfortunately.
In the foreground you see my guide, Terje Konsap. She was great!
