The name was first recorded in the description of the second siege of Tallinn in 1577 as Kyck in de Kaeken, later on several forms of the same name were used, such as Kik (Kyk) in de Kok, Kiek in die Kuche, Pulffer-Thurm Giecken Kock. In 1696 the present name Kiek in de Kok was also mentioned, meaning peek into the kitchen in Low German. And true enough, it was possible to watch what the enemy was doing in their kitchen i.e. on position lower down from the about 38m-high tower. Peter the Great`s cottage. The summer residence, now known as Peter's House, was a one-storeyed oblong building with a hipped roof. It contained four rooms, a kitchen, a hall and a lavatory. Behind the building, on the town side, was a small garden. By 1714 the building had been redecorated and furnished waiting for the tsar's next visit. Exposition of Estonian peasant architecture. In picturesque Estonia, rich with limestone, people have since time immemorial lived in the woods, worshipped sacred trees and drawn vitality from them. Today, the forest is still our wealth. We have also been cultivating our fields for almost 4000 years - we are the northernmost tiller people in the world. Our nature and lifestyle that has remained stable for millennia shaped the type and appearance of the Estonian homestead. The traditional structures built by the country folk were mostly made from pine or fir felled at the winter's peak, sometimes from stone. Even in the beginning of the 20th century, in the corners of some yards a conical tent still remained made from poles: a summer kitchen - such dwellings date back to the Stone Age when they had been used by hunters and fishers. Yet most of the yard buildings were/are built from cross-joined horizontal beams. This is how Estonians built for at least 1000 years - until the beginning of the 20th century.
