The Supilinna Pond

The Supilinna Pond

02.07.2024, Tartu. The Supilinna Pond formed in the 1950s, when land was taken from the right bank of the Emajõgi River for construction. Since then, the watering hole has become an important site for both the residents of Supilinn and many species. The Supilinna Pond covers an area of nearly 2.5 hectares and is home to a large number of frogs. Many of the locals instead refer to it as frog lake. Photo: Kristjan Teedema/Tartu Postimees
