Rakvere is Estonia’s fifth largest city, situated in northern Estonia, 20 km south of the Gulf of Finland. The ruins of the stone castle are nowadays Rakvere’s main tourist attraction. Near the castle stands one of the symbols of the town- sculpture the Bull.  Rakvere is a great place for a diverse short holiday. You can relax in a spa, have a medieval walk and listen to some good jazz music on the same day.

A far more important attraction, Lahemaa National Park, that offers a unique experience for all nature lovers, is around 10 kilometers north of the town.
