Architecturally, it is characterized by its modern glass entrance and the work of Charles Scott and Hurd Rolland Partnership, representing a contemporary diplomatic building within Tallinn’s historic context.

The tour will start in the Embassy’s conference room where photos of previous Ambassadors hang, followed by a tour of some of the offices’ including the Ambassador’s. During the tour, visitors can ask British Embassy staff about their roles, the job of a diplomat, and how they find living in a country that isn’t their home.
