Tartu Street Map Poster

The Emajõgi River curves through the middle of Tartu, and that bend gives this street map its character. On the western bank lies the compact old town, where Town Hall Square (Raekoja plats) gathers pastel facades around its fountain and the leaning Art Museum tilts at one corner. Just behind it rises the wooded knoll of Toomemägi (Cathedral Hill), with the red-brick ruins of the medieval cathedral and the classical main building of the University of Tartu anchoring Estonia’s oldest seat of learning.

Trace the streets outward and the city map reveals the timber cottages of Supilinn, the “Soup Town” quarter where lanes carry names like Pea (Bean) and Herne (Pea), along with the leafy residential grids that frame the centre. It is a smaller, gentler plan than the capital’s — easy to follow and pleasant to live with.

Printed as a minimalist poster, this Tartu design works as understated wall art for students, alumni and anyone fond of the riverside town. Choose from nine themes, browse other Estonia city maps, or set it beside our Tallinn map poster for a Baltic pair.
