Vanalinn (0) Symbol designating a Tallinn "Asum", or Sub-district.

Oldtown. See Uuslinn. Sub-district (Asum) and oldest part of the Kesklinn, divided according to source into 4 Wards (Allasum, pl. Allasumid): All-linn and Toompea, along with the rather nebulous Tallinna linnamüür (Tallinn City Wall) and Tallinna muldkindlustusvöönd (earthwork entrenchment zone). The result of this is a bizarre situation where a number of streets (from Aia to Uus) belong to none of the Wards. While they may well be listed under ‘Vanalinn’, the asymmetric Ward organization irritates the neurodivergent who walk among us. I have therefore decided to create a new Ward which I shall call ‘Kolmas Linn’ and will include all Vanalinn streets, squares, belvederes, etc., that are neither Toompea nor All-linn. Tallinn Linnavalitsus, please take note.
