Vanemuine (lit. 'Eldermost') is a theatre in Tartu. It is the first Estonian-language theatre. Stemming from the Vanemuine Society (1865), the theatre's first performance was Lydia Koidula's Saaremaa Onupoeg ('The cousin from Saaremaa') at the society's fifth anniversary. The original Vanemuine Society House operated for 33 years before being destroyed by fire in 1903. The new hall, designed by the Finnish architect Armas Lindgren, was opened on 13 August 1906.

In 1918 the artistic association Pallas established the Higher Art School Pallas which later played a key role in local art education. Twenty years after the formation of the Pallas association, they decided to create a museum, and on November 17, 1940, the Municipality of Tartu signed a decree for the establishment of the art museum, which was located at Suurturg 3 (now Raekoja Square 3). In summer 1941 the State Ethnographic Museum (now – the Estonian National Museum) gave the museum its 20th century art collection. During the II World War the museum had to be relocated a number of times. The most critical situation occurred in 1943 when, during a bombing raid the brick building at Lai street 17, which at that time housed the collection, collapsed. However, the majority of the collection was saved. After a number of moves, in 1946 the museum was established on two floors of a building at Vallikraavi 14. Over time the building has been rebuilt for museum needs. Initially there were storage and exhibition halls in the building, but in 1999 it was decided to close the building to visitors to better preserve the growing art collection. Today the building houses storage, administration, employees' offices, restoration workshops, library and archives. Since 1988 the Leaning House (Raekoja Plats 18) has also been used by the Tartu Art Museum.

The Saaremaa Museum was founded in 1865 by the Saaremaa Uurimise Selts (Saaremaa Research Society), created that same year. In 1925 the collections were transferred to the Kuressaare fortress. In 1940, after the occupation of Estonia by the USSR, its name was changed to Home History Museum, and it recovered its original name during the German occupation (1941-1944), and in June 1947 it was opened again to the public, and thereafter the collections of the department of history and natural history were completed. In 1949 the Soviet authorities added the departments for Socialist Reconstruction and Patriotic War. In 1959 it changed its name again to the Saaremaa House History Museum, and in 1990 the original name was definitively restored: Saaremaa Museum. In 1991, after the proclamation of the Republic of Estonia, items introduced during the Soviet era were removed from the museum. In subsequent years, the spaces of the fortress were remodeled, which in 2003 was nominated for the UNESCO World Heritage List.
