Tallinn University is located in the heart of Tallinn, situated between the historically rich Kadriorg district and the charming Tallinn Old Town. As such, the university campus is surrounded by picturesque locations that are a wonder to explore! If you're looking for ideas on what to do, we recommend taking a long, relaxing walk in the Kadriorg Park or along the Reidi tee promenade to enjoy the dazzling Baltic sea.
Tallinn University is located on Narva road and the university campus consists of 6 buildings that are all connected through a series of glass corridors, galleries, and walkways. The university buildings represent a unique academic blend of modern and historic elements, offering a distinctive atmosphere for all those who visit us. Thanks to its convenient location, the university campus is accessible by car, bicycle, electric scooter, public transport, or even on foot. What's more, Tallinn University is the only Estonian university that is accessible via tram, which is the greenest public transportation option. For more information on where to park your car or your bike, please visit the university website here.
Tallinn University campus is fully accessible for people with disabilities and those with challenged mobility. Read more about that under "Venue".
On behalf of the seminar committee, we warmly welcome you in Tallinn and hope you will create memorable moments!
