Volta stop — Põhja-Tallinn · Kalamaja

Volta was Tallinn’s largest electric-motor factory in Soviet times. In recent years the Volta quarter has been built on the factory grounds — a complex of residential and commercial buildings where the old brick façades have been partly preserved.

The stop lies at the junction of Kopli street and Volta street, on the northern edge of Kalamaja. From here it is a short walk to the Telliskivi creative campus and to Balti jaam.

The stop is served by lines T1, T2, T5 and T6.
