The River Emajogi moving through Tartu and there are 4 bridges in the centre. I liked the pedestrian bridge near the bus terminal and the market. The bridge built recently and it has very beautiful decoration in the end – the sailing-ship.
I do not know whether the police in Tartu still uses this picturesque Soviet motorbike with sidecar, I took the picture in 1992 when the Estonian police had lots of vehiicles which elsewhere are found in museums of vintage cars. At my last visit in Estonia in 2002 I did not see anything llike that but I was not in Tartu.

Tartu University has Already in times when the city was named Dorpat, its university was "the" university for the Baltics. It was founded in 1632 by the Swedish King Gustav Adolph thanks to intervention and support of the Swedish governor in Livonia, Johan Skytte.
Even under the Russian government before 1918 the language of professors and students was the language of the Baltic elite: German. Nowadays it is of course Estonian, with some classes in English.
The main university building was erected shortly after 1800. Rumours tell that the position of the university architect was given to a certain inexperienced candidate only because he was the son-in-law of the rector. However, the university made a good choice. His building is a beautiful masterpiece of neoclassical architecture.
Not to be missed: the neoclassical aula. It can be visited with guided tours.
University of Tartu, the most important in Estonia, give to the city an special life in the streets, squares and public places. It is the main cause of it plenty cultural life.
La Universidad de Tartu le da una vida especial a sus calles, plazas y locales siendo la responsable de su intensa vida cultural.
