Day at the Museum

The other day my flat-mate and I visited the University of Tartu Museum. Even before entering the museum, I was already enraptured by the architecture of the building. The crumbling arches gave the building an ancient look, almost like ruins.

There were so many fascinating exhibits, from sculptures of Muses to animal skeletons; they even had an exhibit of a giraffe! Unfortunately, right as I was going to take a picture, I was startled by a strange noise and then a voice snapping, “This is my library!” I almost ran out of the museum, but I laughed once I realized it was a loop that was playing. Even with the scare, I think that this exhibition, Morgenstern Hall, was my favorite. It told the story of the University of Tartu. It just was really beautiful, and there was a lot of interactive features as well. I could have spent hours on that floor alone.
