Church of the Holy Spirit, Tallinn
The Church of the Holy Spirit is a medieval Gothic church in the old town of Tallinn (Reval), built in the 14th century as the chapel of the town hall and the almshouse. Its carved and painted high altar of 1483 is by Bernt Notke, and its outer clock is the oldest public clock in Tallinn. After the Reformation it became the church of the Estonian-speaking congregation.
