Toome hill, Public park in Tartu, Estonia.
The park extends across a prominent hill featuring ancient stone bridges, winding paths, and multiple monuments dedicated to notable university figures.
Emperor Paul I donated this area to the University of Tartu in 1803, transforming it from cattle grazing grounds to a center of education.
The park contains the ruins of Tartu Cathedral, which now houses the University of Tartu Museum, displaying collections of scientific instruments.
Multiple entrances connect the park to downtown Tartu, with stone stairs and paved paths making it accessible from different directions.
Two cast iron bridges from 1816, the Angel's and Devil's Bridge, cross the valleys within the park at different elevations.
