Talk:Toompea Castle

Name

Is there a good reason why the title of this article is written in Latin, the way Henry of Livonia called it in the 13th century? In case not, the article should be renamed the way it is called in English nowadays Toompea Castle at google ], at google books thanks!--Termer 06:04, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Do look who created the article - £ (talk · contribs) is yet another sockpuppet of Bloomfeld... -- Sander Säde 06:48, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Moved the article now. Needs cleanup and expanding, though. Should be plenty of material to make it into GA-level article. -- Sander Säde 06:52, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Picture of the day

Toompea Castle is a castle on Toompea hill in the central part of Tallinn, the capital of Estonia. Though the castle is located on an ancient stronghold site in use since at least the 9th century, much of the current building was constructed in the 13th and 14th century by the Order of the Brethren of the Sword. Today the castle houses the Parliament of Estonia, which meets in a building designed by Eugen Habermann and Herbert Johanson.Photograph: Abrget47j

Parliament of Estonia's website cite

I checked out the cited source and I found a webpage, in English, whose URL perhaps should be used instead of the URL currently in the cite: --Dyspeptic skeptic (talk) 08:53, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
