Abandoned Soviet Concert Hall 🇪🇪

Whilst in Tallinn, Estonia, we decided to walk over to the old abandoned soviet concert hall which was built for the Moscow 1980 olympic games. As Moscow didn't have the capability to host sailing events, they used the coastal capital city of Estonia, Tallinn as the place for this event.

The steps of Linnahall were originally built to signify Tallinn’s status as hosts of the sailing events for the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games.

The soviet concert hall is now abandoned and you can explore the outside and on top of the structure, but the insides have been closed off to the public, probably for good reasons.

When you're stood on top of this abandoned building, you can overlook the bay of Finland and you can actually see the abandoned soviet prison called Patarei in the distance, which you can walk to quite easily along the coastline of Estonia.

Linnahall is a perfect example of the rigid, rectangular and concrete style so closely associated with Soviet structures, providing a further illustration of Communist delusions of grandeur. The last concert was held here in 2009 and shortly afterwards the soviet concert hall was abandoned.
