Grammofon Tallinn

Selected vinyl oldies

Nikolai from Tallinn

About me I was born in a small industrial border town. My teenage hood was all about our crew, rap, basketball and our street stories. Then I moved to the South to study in Tartu University, where for 5 years I learned science and enjoyed the free student life. When Estonia joined the EU, I made a move to Ireland, where I spent 2 years of my precious life pouring Guinness to peo...
""Grammofon" in Tallinn is all about the old vinyls. What I love about the shop is the careful selection and how you have two decks for listening available."

The shop is just a few steps away from Town Hall Square, right opposite to Depeche Mode bar. You will find a rare collection of old vinyl records, coins, stamps, postcards, badges and other small tokens from the Soviet Era and even earlier days of the first Estonian Republic and Tsarist Russia.

But mostly it's all about old vinyls, however, don't worry; you don't have to waste your time looking for a needle in a haystack. Records are carefully selected and restored and you have 2 decks for listening at your disposal. If you are a devoted music lover then this selection will keep your mind entertained for some time. And don't be shy - have a chat with the shopkeeper Vadim, he will provide you with useful knowledge about his collection and give some insight into the local music scene.

Last time when I was there I got two Herbie Hancock's LPs for my collection for €7 each.

About me I was born in a small industrial border town. My teenage hood was all about our crew, rap, basketball and our street stories. Then I moved to the South to study in Tartu University, where for 5 years I learned science and enjoyed the free student life. When Estonia joined the EU, I made a move to Ireland, where I spent 2 years of my precious life pouring Guinness to people's glasses in the unforgettable small town of Clifden. Finally, in 2005, I settled down in Tallinn. Now, apart from wandering around in the city, I work as entrepreneur/guide in the up...

EVC Memorial

Perfect example of landscape design

"EVC Memorial", or the Victims of Communism Memorial, is about 10 minutes from the city center. It was only built recently, so it's still not well known!
