Melchior the Apothecary in St Catherine's monastery
„Apteeker Melchior“ Katariina kloostris
In autumn 2020 the Apothecary Melchior crew took over corners of Tallinn's Old Town. For more than a week from 17 September they filmed in the medieval Dominican St Catherine's monastery and its courtyard, closing parts of Vene and Müürivahe streets. Later scenes were shot in the Danish King's Garden and on Lühike jalg, on Pikk jalg, and on Town Hall Square, where a big scene with a hundred extras was filmed in the Town Hall on 8 October. The guild-hall feasts, by contrast, were built as a studio set at Haabneeme, since the real halls are still in use.

2020. aasta sügisel võttis „Apteeker Melchiori“ võttegrupp üle Tallinna vanalinna nurgatagused. Alates 17. septembrist filmiti üle nädala keskaegses dominiiklaste Katariina kloostris ja selle siseõues ning osa Vene ja Müürivahe tänavast suleti. Hiljem tehti võtteid Taani kuninga aias ja Lühikesel jalal, Pikal jalal ning Raekoja platsil, kus 8. oktoobril filmiti raekojas suur stseen saja statistiga. Gildimajade pidusöögid ehitati seevastu stuudiodekoratsioonina Haabneeme, sest päris saalid on endiselt kasutusel.
