Otepää Central Square

Lipuväljaku, Otepää vald, Valga maakond, 67405

In the summer of 2020, the Otepää Central Square and Flag Square dedicated to the Estonian tricolour got a new look. The Central Square is illustrated by Bruno Kadak’s bronze sculpture – the fountain ‘Fun Ott’.There is a well-known belief around the world that throwing a coin in a fountain brings happiness, but when coming to the Otepää fountain, you have to scratch the bear’s rear paw.The Flag Square has one of the highest flagpoles in Estonia. Next to the Estonian flagstaff are pavilions and information stands telling the story of the flag. The community garden with a children’s playground offers leisure opportunities for both adults and children.Come to Otepää!
