St. Mary's Cathedral, known in Estonian as Toomkirik, is a Gothic church on Toompea hill in the medieval centre of Tallinn, Estonia. Established in the 13th century as a Roman Catholic cathedral after the Kingdom of Denmark conquered northern Estonia during the Northern Crusades, it became Lutheran in 1561 and is now the seat of the Archbishop of Tallinn. It is the oldest church in Tallinn and mainland Estonia, and the only building on Toompea to survive the 17th-century fire.
