St Catherine's Passage lies to the side of St Catherine's Church, connecting the Vene and Muurivahe streets. One of the prettiest pedestrian paths in all of Old Town, the medieval passage is home to the St. Catherine's Guild, a conglomeration of craft workshops where artisans work and sell glassware, hats, quilts, ceramics, jewelry, hand-painted silk and other handcrafted creations. While the artisans occupy the 15th - 17th century rooms on the south side, the north side has large ancient tombstones.
