Angel's Bridge in Tartu

Angel's Bridge in Tartu is a historic footbridge on Toome Hill that connects sections of Lossi Street lying at different heights. The bridge is decorated with a bas-relief of Georg Friedrich Parrot, the first rector of the University of Tartu, and the Latin inscription "Otium reficit vires", meaning "rest restores strength". Angel's Bridge is among Tartu's best-known architectural monuments and an important part of Toome Hill's historic park landscape. The bridge and its surroundings offer views of green slopes and footpaths. The very different-looking Devil's Bridge is nearby. It can be seen on an everyday walk.
