The first free Museum Sunday of 2023 will take place this Sunday, 8 January. The initiative will be joined by the Nõmme Museum, located in the former station building.
The Museum Sundays programme, which attracted nearly 60 000 visitors last year, will continue this year, but from February it will be necessary to buy a zero ticket to visit the branches of Tallinn City Museum.
From next Sunday, 5 February, free entry tickets are required to visit Tallinn City Museum branches on Museum Sundays. The tickets are available on the Tallinn City Museum website.
This Sunday, 6 November, admission to museums affiliated to Tallinn Museum is free of charge. The next and last Museum Sunday in which the entry is free will take place on 4 December.
In the 2025/2026 academic year, the City of Tallinn will open classes in five schools transitioning to Estonian-language instruction, specifically for children who speak Estonian at a native level. Admission to these Estonian-language classes will be city-wide, meaning students will not be automatically assigned to these classes. Parents will decide whether to enroll their children in these classes.
Starting in the fall of 2025, five schools transitioning to Estonian-language education in Tallinn will, for the first time, open classes where instruction is conducted at the mother-tongue level of Estonian. These classes are offered through citywide enrollment, meaning children are not automatically assigned to these classes. The decision to enroll a child in one of these classes rests with the parents.
The Tallinn City Government is preparing to consolidate the management of the Tallinn Creative Hub, Salme Cultural Center, and Vene Cultural Center under a single administration. As part of this restructuring, St. Catherine’s Church—a renowned venue for cultural events—will also be integrated into the new structure. The planned merger is set to take place during the summer, between cultural seasons.
