Kuressaare Walking Tour

Discover Kuressaare: A Walk Through History, Culture, and Island Charm

Step into the warm and welcoming atmosphere of Kuressaare, the historic spa town that captures the true spirit of Saaremaa. This guided walk is the perfect way to experience the island’s capital — its history, relaxed pace, and beautiful, well-preserved architecture.

During the tour, you will stroll along the elegant main street and explore the town’s highlights: the charming town centre, Baltic-German townhouses, the 17th-century Town Hall, the old weighhouse, several historic churches, the local bus station, and a meaningful monument dedicated to the region’s fallen heroes — plus many more hidden gems.

The tour concludes at Kuressaare’s crown jewel — the impressive Episcopal Castle, one of the best-preserved medieval fortresses in the entire Baltic region. You will explore its three levels — please note that some internal staircases are steep and uneven, which may be challenging for guests with mobility issues.

This tour is ideal for visitors who want to discover the town’s most important sights and immerse themselves in Kuressaare’s unique charm. Join us and see why travellers from around the world fall in love with this beautiful island town.
