Hahn's staircase (Narva)

Estonia / Ida-Viru / Narva / Koidula Street, 1b
 stairs / steps, interesting place, 19th century construction

Built at the southern end of a garden in Narva in 1875 on the initiative of Mayor A. Hahn, this staircase was originally longer than it appears today. However, construction of a new bridge saw the first section of the staircase disappear beneath the ground. The staircase has since lost its function, as it leads down onto the St. Petersburg highway - the border zone between Estonia and Russia.
