3D ModelNoAI

The oldest known archeological traces of the ancient fortress on Rakvere’s Vallimäe hill date from the 5th-6th century. Throughout the ages, Rakvere castle has belonged to Danish kings, knight-monks of the Livonian Order and the Swedish and Polish states. During the Polish-Swedish War of 1600-1629, the castle was partly blown up by the Polish troops in 1605, and later also by the Swedish army. The castle has lain in ruins ever since.

Today there is a theme park in the castle representing the everyday life of the 16th century.
