Medieval Days in Tallinn is an annual tradition where people from near and far come together for four days to celebrate the Middle Ages. Raeapteek offers both locals and foreign visitors the opportunity to hear more about the history of the 600-year-old pharmacy, and there are claret tours on three evenings where you can taste spiced wine made according to a 16th-century recipe. The history lesson in the museum is free for everyone, the claret tasting costs 5€, and due to the limited number of places, it is also necessary to pre-register.
In addition, Raeapteek museum sells exciting Rae products directly on the market on all four days and invites everyone interested to take part in herbal and spice workshops for 3€.
