Estonia: Tall Hermann

Today I got two postcards: one from Estonia and one from Spain.

The card from Estonia shows the Tall Hermann. The Tall Hermann is located next to the Estonian Parliament in the Historic Centre of Tallinn. The flag on the top of the tower is a symbol of the government in force. It is raised at the time of sunrise while the Estonian National Anthem is played and lowered at the time of sunset while the song "Mu isamaa on minu arm" ("My Fatherland is my Love") is played.


Stamp:
EUROPA (from set of two) (issued 08-05-2014)


Thank You very much Triin!
