Angel and Devil Bridges on Toompea
A tale of Angel and Devil bridges on Toompea needs a local source: the well-known bridges with those names are in Tartu.
The contrast between an Angel Bridge and a Devil Bridge is memorable enough for names to travel between towns. Tartu has two recognised historic bridges bearing them. The general description available for Toompea does not establish that a matching pair existed there or identify a specific local tale. The transferred names should not become a claimed Tallinn attraction. This entry remains a research question until a Tallinn plan, photograph or clearly local account is found.
