Tallinn Cathedral School (also Tallinn Knight and Cathedral School; Template:Lang-et, Template:Lang-de, Template:Lang-la) is a school in Tallinn, Estonia.[1]
First written records of the school date back to 1319. In 1684, the school was destroyed in the large fire in the Toompea area. The construction of a new school building was completed seven years larter, in 1691. Since 1765, the school was managed by Estonian Knighthood. The construction of the building at Toom-Kooli Street 11 where the school located nowadays, was completed in 1845. In 1892, the school was closed due to Russification. In 1906, the school was re-opened. In 1920, Estonian Knighthood was liquidated and the school was managed by the successor organization of knighthood (Template:Lang-et). School was closed during World War II in the context of Baltic German Umsiedlung.[1]
Since 1965, the school building is used by Tallinn Ballet School.[1]
