Visited many times, offers nice view to Estonian history. Restaurant offers nice food and it is decent place for lunch.
This place was very surprising, it was a museum with many floors. I did not expect that, you could get lost between the floors, each one from a different century. Don't miss the bar at the very top.
Paide is the heart of Estonia. If you plan to go to Tartu, then definitely you need to go to the Paid for a couple of hours. It is only 10 km from the Tallinn-Tartu highway. This is an old not big city with its ancient history. If the name Ivan-terrible speaks to you. During the seizure (by Vaysenstein) of Paide by the army of Ivan the Terrible, on January 1, 1573, the heroic attack was led by Malyuta Skuratov. He was killed near the castle walls. Construction of the building of the castle Paide began in 1265. Local white limestone was used to build the castle. Wittenstein - white stone .Using the time machine, you can easily touch the history of our region and the heart of Estonia.
