The Kütimäe cemetery was founded in 1872 by the owners of Rutikvere Manor, the Pistohlkorses. As the German cemetery in Põltsamaa lacked enough space, the landlords had to establish a private cemetery. To build it, the farmers had to make an artificial mound in Kütimäe. According to legend, this hill was built for two years and the soil was transported by horses.In 1873, a cemetery wall, a three-part gate, and a neo-Gothic chapel were also built. The chapel is decorated with the arms of the Pistohlkorses.The exact number of people buried in the cemetery is unknown. The cemetery is still operating today and is maintained by the Põltsamaa Municipality.

Karlova is a neighborhood in Tartu that captivates visitors with its bohemian atmosphere. In Tartu's Karlova district, there are historical wooden houses, secret courtyards worth discovering, unique cafés loved by locals, greenery, and plenty of street art. In the heart of Karlova are several important community places – the cozy Karlova Kohv, the popular meeting spot Barlova Bar, and the Karlova Harbor area by the Emajõgi River, suitable for more peaceful leisure. The neighborhood dates back to the houses built on the lands of Karlova Manor in the 19th–20th centuries, which have developed into today's unique living environment. The oldest settlement, at the beginning of Kalevi Street, dates back to the 18th century and architecturally differs from the rest of the area. In spring, Karlova Days take place, where you can get to know the neighborhood even better through various events and open courtyards. Exploring the neighborhood with a guide will show you Karlova's hidden side and the historical charm of its bohemian wooden houses. More information can be found on the Tartu Guides website.

Linocut is one of the simplest classic graphic techniques where the printing form is cut out of linoleum by hand. In the workshop, each participant prepares a printing plate in linocut technique based on their own design. You can use the finished printing plate repeatedly and print greeting cards, notebook covers, and beautiful pictures. You can get all the materials from us, but we recommend thinking about your design or searching the Internet for inspiration beforehand. The image should have strong contrasts and clear lines, such as black and white, because linocutting cannot be used for smooth colour transitions.

St. Mary’s Church in Tartu was built in 1842 to be the home church of the city of Tartu and the Estonians in the parish. Prominent parish members included, for example, M. Härma, L. Koidula, and J. V. Jannsen. In 1869, the first Estonian song festival was initiated in St. Mary's Church in Tartu, which is why the church is also called the cradle of the song festival.The church was destroyed on July 12, 1941 and was reconstructed as a gym for the Estonian Academy of Agriculture. The church remained as a sanctuary for sports in Tartu for almost 50 years.The church was returned to the parish again in 2009 and is presently being restored. In 2022 the restoration works of the tower, which had been demolished while turning the church into a gym, were finished. A golden rooster stands guard on the tower.
