Visiting Tartu I was a bit disappointed. Considered as the intellectual and cultural capital of the country, the city does not have many attractions. The beautiful gothic church of St. Jana and the university. Tartu, once called Dorpat, also had a Polish episode. For several years, at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, it belonged to the Republic of Poland, and a memento of those times is the flag in Polish national colors given to the city by King Stefan Batory.
