Danish King's Garden

Danish King's Garden (Estonian : Taani kuninga aed) is a park in Tallinn Old Town, Estonia.

The park is the place where the flag of Denmark, Dannebrog , according to tradition, is said to have been born. Every year on 15 June, Dannebrog or the Day of the Danish Flag is celebrated in the garden. [1]

The park's name derives from the Danish reign, [1] which lasted in Tallinn and northern Estonia for over a hundred years, mainly during the 13th century.
