Maiden Tower
 |
Maiden tower name is kinda ironic as the tower used to be a prison for prostitutes. Once a deal was made between an ugly prostitute and the devil – girl would get beauty, and the devil gets her soul. A part of the deal was that the girl was to seduce as many male townsfolk to the path of sin as she possibly could. In the end, the prostitute was declared a witch and executed.
In recent years, a male voice has been heard singing, yet the tower has always turned out to be empty upon inspection. There is cafe in the tower, whose staff credit the ghosts with helping them keep the place in order. After all, ghosts are still very much in residence in Tallinn Old Town.
