University of Tartu Art Museum

The University of Tartu Art Museum is located in the historical University Main Building and has operated in the same rooms since 1868, which is the year the Pompeian style interior was finished. The University of Tartu Art Museum has the only permanent exhibition of antique art and real mummies in Estonia. On the same ticket, you can also visit the university’s assembly hall and the old student lock-up in the attic. In the Mummy Chamber, visitors will find two genuine mummified humans and a mummified canine, all of them from Egypt. The University of Tartu Art Museum is one of the branches of University of Tartu Museum.
