magnificent view of the whole town. Hanseatic merchants settled here as long
ago as the 14th century. Due to its good location, varied nature and good
connecting roads, Viljandi is an excellent place for trade, stopovers and living.
Bridge
When you walking along a footpath you will soon get to the famous suspension bridge. The first
bridge in 1931 was a contribution to the town by the landlord of Tarvastu, Karl von Mensenkampff.
The bridge is over 50 m long. It has been rebuilt many times over the years, last time in 1995.
The Viljandi Order Castle
Order Castle was started in 1224 by the Order of the Sword in
place of an earlier wooden one. This stronghold became the
residence of a politically and economically influential komtuur.
The castle of this stronghold was largest in Old Livonia. Due to
damages during different wars the stronghold now lies in ruins.
