Weather in Tartu


Since 1959, at the place where the historical Stone Bridge spanned the banks of the Emajõgi River for more than one and a half centuries, stands the Arched Bridge for pedestrians. The ends of the reinforced concrete bridge are supported by the foundation of the old Stone Bridge.

 

The Market Bridge was completed in 2003, and in the same year was voted the „act of the year” by the citizens of Tartu.
The Angel’s Bridge, located on Toome hill, was built in the 19th century and spans Lossi Street.

In the 18th century the first stone bridge in the Baltics was built at the end of the Town Hall Square, with two triumph arches and a lifting centre, which was dedicated to Catherine II and was opened for traffic in 1784. The bridge was destroyed in World War II, now it can only be admired by way of the model bridge, which was created in 2004.

The Devil’s Bridge was built in 1913 in honour of the 300th jubilee of tsarist Russia’s Romanov Dynasty, which is memorialized on the bridge by the dates 1613-1913.
