Our Lady of Kazan Church

The Church of Our Lady of Kazan in Tallinn is the oldest wooden building in the city. Built in 1721, it was the first church in Estonia completed after the Great Northern War. A major reconstruction in the 19th century gave it its present neoclassical façade and interior. Beside the church grows the Kazan church poplar, the oldest and thickest poplar in Estonia.

Tallinna Kaasani Jumalaema Sündimise kirik on Tallinna vanim puitehitis. 1721. aastal ehitatud kirik oli esimene pärast Põhjasõda Eestis valminud kirik. 19. sajandi suur ümberehitus andis sellele praeguse klassitsistliku fassaadi ja interjööri. Kiriku kõrval kasvab Kaasani kiriku pappel – Eesti vanim ja jämedaim pappel.
