It remained in the hands of the same Hungarian family until the 20th century. St. Mary's Cathedral The church contains a large number of monuments, for example the tomb monument of the Swedish Commander-in-Chief Pontus de la Cardie and his wife which is the oldest (1589), the tomb monuments to two Russian admirals (neither of them Russian by nationality) Samuel Greigh and Adam Johann v. Krusenstern (the first Russian circumnavigator). The altar and the pulpit were made by the well- known 17th cent. master Christian Ackermann. He is also the author of the majority of the epitaph coats of arms in the church. St. Nicholas Church During the Reformation in 1524 many valuable works of art were destroyed in Tallinn. The locks on the doors of St. Nicholas Church had been poured full of molten lead and they could not be opened.

He shrugged. "Early sixteen-thirties, more or less." I looked away from the cross to stare at him. "Why do you keep this here?" I wondered. "Nostalgia. It belonged to Carlisle's father." "He collected antiques?" I suggested doubtfully. "No. He carved this himself. It hung on the wall above the pulpit in the vicarage where he preached." I wasn't sure if my face betrayed my shock, but I returned to gazing at the simple, ancient cross, just in case. I quickly did the mental math; the cross was over three hundred and seventy years old. The silence stretched on as I struggled to wrap my mind around the concept of so many years. "Are you all right?" He sounded worried. "How old is Carlisle?" I asked quietly, ignoring his question, still staring up.
