University of Tartu Museum

Very good place, especially for young children, since there are a lot of interactive and interesting parts of the exhibition. Everything is informative and interesting. You can well-spend at least 2 hours here.

The museum of the University of Tartu, the oldest and most established university in the Baltics, allows you to truly experience the historical past. You can see hundreds of exhibits related to the historical development of the university. There are interesting exhibits about student life in past centuries and organizations that have emerged throughout the history of the university. Although it is free for students of the University of Tartu, other students have to pay.

A tasteful repurposing of an old building. Slightly underwhelming for adults but a great place to enjoy with kids. The library section is outstanding and the function floor was being prepared for a wedding.

Good and interesting museum. Building is old but inside it’s very fresh and beautiful. There are several places for kids activities. Tickets are cheap. Together with tower visit it’s 7 eur/person. Staff is very kind and helpful. At the entrance they explained where to start and helped to get into elevator. An old elevator was very interesting for our son. Expositions are nice, we most of all liked a science library in 5th floor.

This museum was a surprise discovery for our family during a drizzle October afternoon in Tartu. The various exhibitions are beautifully presented and it's clear that they've been put together with care. The love of science seeps through in every nook of every room.

Great interactive place, which would also be extremely fun for the children. And it's located in a reconstructed part of an astoundingly beautiful ruins, which you must also explore and visit the tower. And the old lift in the museum is a throwback experience on its own

I visited this place 10 days ago. There are 7 floors. For me, 4th floor is the most beautiful part. I would suggest university students to go there and learn more about university, how rich history it has. Also, it is worth to be inside of this building. Oldest elevator in Tartu is here and it has interesting vibe and way of use. So, take you 2.5 hours and learn more about UT. It will not be boring at all.

So glad we went here. The University is the heart and soul of the city and this well presented museum gave great insight into its history. Also includes trip up cathedral tower to see the skyline
