Souvenirs from Tallinn

What to buy in Tallinn: smarter, smaller souvenirs that feel meaningful — plus where to look (Old Town, Telliskivi, markets) and what to avoid.

Good Souvenir Choices

The best souvenirs are small, useful, and tied to place. Look for:

  • Locally made crafts
  • Design objects you’ll actually use
  • Food gifts (chocolate, bakery treats)

Start with Shopping in Tallinn for neighborhood guidance.

Where to Shop

  • Old Town for classic souvenir browsing.
  • Telliskivi for design-forward makers.
  • Markets for casual gifts.

Add a market stop: Food Markets in Tallinn.

What to Avoid

Avoid anything that feels generic or mass-produced. If the same item appears in every tourist shop window, it probably isn’t the Tallinn memory you want.
