Port of Tallinn


Estonia has always been closely related to shipping and commerce, the Tallinn city development is directly dependent on the development of the port. State- owned Port of Tallinn was formed in April 1992, in 1996 it was changed to a public company, whose sole shareholder is the Republic of Estonia. Port of Tallinn consists of five harbors. These harbours are The Old City Harbour, Muuga Harbour, Paljassaare Harbour, Paldiski South Harbour and Saarema Harbour. All these harbours are navigable all year round .
  • Muuga Harbour – biggest cargo harbour in Estonia. It is located 17 kilometers east from Tallinn, built on the coast of Muuga Bay. Muuga Harbour is the deepest (up to 18 m) and most modern ports in the Baltic Sea region .
  • The Old City Harbor – one of the biggest and busiest passenger harbor in the Baltic Region. It is located in the heart of the city of Tallinn. By the year 2008, 7 247 366 passengers had travelled through the Port of Tallinn. That is remarkable.
  • Paljassaare Harbor - one of the most sheltered harbors in Estonia in terms of winds and waves. It is situated on Paljassaare Peninsula in Tallinn, about 6 kilometres from the centre of the city.
  • Paldiski South Harbor – it is located 45 kilometers west of Tallinn. It is the Port of Tallinn’s second cargo harbor.

Kunda Gymnasium Rait Türkel Old Tallinn Report Instructor:Teacher Kristi Aron Kunda 2012 Introduction Like most cities with an eight-hundred-year-old past, Tallinn is a patchwork of historic areas.

It is situated on the northern coast of the country, on the shore of the Gulf of Finland, 80 km south of Helsinki, east of Stockholm and west of Saint Petersburg
