Eppingi torn (?):

Possibly Tideman Eppynck, 14^th C, spelled variously as Thilmannus, Thidemannus, Tydemann, Thidericus and Eppynch, Eppingh, Eppinc, Eppingk. A wealthy burgher in charge of one of the Tallinn towers, although not necessarily this one. There were various ‘Eppincks’: one recorded as dying in 1378, and another, a Tafelbruder, member of the Tafelgilde, a lesser guild involved in feeding the poor, in 1383, along with a Hinrik Eppinchusen, not only a Tafelbruder too from 1399, but alderman of the Kinder- or Große Gilde (Est. Suurgild), or Great Guild, from 1427-31, and appointed Kämmerer, or councilor warden of the city finances, in 1432. Uncertain. See also Wulfardi-tagune torn. The Great Guildhouse is at Pikk 17.
