Kassitoome, Depression park in Kesklinn district, Tartu, Estonia.
The park spans between Näituse Street, Baeri Street, and Oru Street, with paths winding through different elevation levels offering varied perspectives of the area.
The land contains remnants of Swedish-era fortifications and was previously used as a clay and sand quarry before its transformation into a public green space.
The park holds two monuments: one dedicated to university rector Alexander Schmidt and another depicting characters from the 1224 Battle of Tartu.
The terrain of Kassitoome serves multiple purposes throughout the year, functioning as a concert venue in summer and a sledding location during winter months.
In June 1869, this location hosted the ecclesiastical opening ceremony of the first Estonian Song Celebration, gathering approximately 12,000 participants.
