Olaf. Unfortunately, however, this church was partially destroyed in the great fire of 14S3. The tower was soon rebuilt to it's present height of 429 feet This is one of the highest churches in Europe, and in the old days formed a landmark for seafar- CTS.
 The Esthonian Church of the Holy Ghost is one of the oldest in exist ence. Experts believe it to have been built in the early Gothic period. Tn addition, there are many other notable buildings, including the town hall and the Schartz Haupter Hans (Black-Headed building): this latter derives it's name from its patron saint, the Negro Saint Mauritius, whose black head crowns the build ing, which belongs to the Associa, tiOn of Bachelor Business Men, orig inally formed for the maintenance of order and the defense of the town against marauders.
 The traveller should not leave Els thonia before he has mounted the Lax berg at sunset. From here he will see in the distance the DOmberg castle with it's silvery shimmering roofs and towers; the dark silhouette of the Olaf church, with it's spire hidden in clouds; and the blue sea forming a background, interrupted by the fine green line of Wolf and Nargan is- lands, beyond which the fishermen are returning home. Crowned by the red rays of the setting sun, this will re- main a ver-to-be-forgotten picture.
