Christmas at Niguliste Museum
Niguliste Museum in the heart of Tallinn’s Old Town, invites you to participate in a fairy-tale-like Christmas season. Christmas at Niguliste has become an eagerly awaited tradition and marks the beginning of the winter holiday season at the museum. To celebrate the beginning of Advent, the interior decoration company Shishi will again decorate the museum’s Christmas tree.
This Advent season, Niguliste invites you to explore the enchanting world of unicorns at the exhibition Unicorn in the Magical Forest. The church tower will also be open to visitors, with a glass lift taking you up to the top floor for a magical view of Tallinn’s Old Town, sparkling with Christmas lights.
On Advent Sundays, visitors are welcome to attend workshops and listen to organ music and concerts by young musicians. Students and kindergarten children are invited to participate in the annual Christmas-themed museum class, “The Legends of St Nicholas”.
Alongside the traditional series “Half an hour of organ music”, we will treat visitors to several exciting and festive concerts during the Christmas season (Christmas Jazz, Corelli Music, the Ellerhein Girls’ Choir, the Tallinn Boys’ Choir and Veronika Portsmuth’s choir). As the new year begins, music lovers will enjoy the 38th international Niguliste Organ Week, which starts on 1 January 2025.
