Tartu Nature House

Tartu Nature House is a small green oasis in the middle of the city and also the home of Tartu Environmental Education Centre. The sustainably built house offers environmental education and activities for the whole family. At the heart of the centre is the winter garden where you'll find various useful plant species as well as turtles. In the animal room, you can meet various furry and feathered pets. The centre always has many different nature-themed exhibitions on display, this summer the exhibition “Fathers and Sons“ concentrates on fathers as caregivers in the animal and plant kingdom! The exhibition is divided into several major themes and offers something to visitors of all ages. A beautiful park surrounds the centre, where visitors can familiarise themselves with different educational paths, a beaver dam meant for humans, gardens, a viewing platform and children's play areas. It is also possible to buy nature themed souvenirs and visit the house with the help of a guide.
