Esta bien. Siendo un edifico imponente por lo visto estaba echo polvo (casi literal) y bueno han conseguido un edifico imponente con forma de igleisa muy chula.

Pero edificios a parte. Tienes que ir sólo por una razón. (Descripción detallada de que hay y que se ve al final)

Os cuento:

La entrada a la iglesia son 3€ Si haces fotos suma 1€ Y subir a la Torre 2€

Pregunta del año. ¿Cuánto te cobran por ver la iglesia y subir a la Torre? . . . . . . ¿Cuanto crees? Eh? . . . . . . Tachaaaan! 2€ (Eh!? WTF)

Si parece ser que si subes a la Torre te regalan el precio de la visita a la iglesia. Imagino que es un honor bien merecido por la subida a la Torre, que para mi han sido par de meses de escaleras en mi vida (y al momento de escribir esto vivo en un tercero sin ascensor... )

La Iglesia es lo que es, un monumental edifico de ladrillo en el que se han salvado algunas piezas chulas, como las imágenes talladas en ladrillo (chiquititas) de Santos, etc.. algún trozo de lápida, y poco más. NO hay retablo, NO hay vidrieras, NO hay altar mayor, etc.. Bueno vacia, vacía, no está, tiene bancos un órgano chico, y en donde estaría el altar lo han arreglado para tener un altarcito y una mesa donde ponerse el oficiante. Los muros están desnudos, pero cuando fui yo pusieron una exposición de cuadros chulos.

Si piensas que ha pasado por varias calamidades siendo quemada y destruida, se entiende que los Estonios estén tan orgullosos de que siga en pie de forma tan digna en imponente.

La torre, pues la vista son brutales. Lo primero bueno subes al coro. Así by The face.

Y sigues subiendo, con escaleras cada vez más empinadas. Entre medias tienes el placer de poder contemplar un par de plantas, vacías, sin nada de nada, mientras llegas arriba. NO subo foto de las vistas, por que no se donde las he metido, os juro que merece la pena.

Y si te lo tomas con humor la subida es hasta simpática. Si eras baguete paga para ver...

Stunning, beautiful, austere. We went during the week and were the only visitors; the downstairs is interesting enough, with all the beautiful terracotta faces in the tilework, but do pay for the climb! The attendant came and opened the shop for us, and then unlocked the doors for us to go up the tower. "Turn off the lights on your way down", she told us :) The climb was mostly easy; a little tight in places, but worth it for the various views. Definitely...

St. John’s Church in Tartu is beautifully renovated, it stands out with its red brick exterior. Inside, you’ll find a peaceful atmosphere and restored medieval details. You can climb the narrow stairs to the tower for views over the old town. It's a must-visit for history and architecture lovers. We loved it 😍 And what a fun lady at the shop! 💃🏼 Ticket only 3€...

Recently renovated, 2005, this is a nice church. The main characteristic is the so called 1000 figurines inside the church. Inside you can’t really see them actually because of their position. You can take pictures and access the tower against entrance fees

You can visit the church, but it's not worth it paying the fee and going up 138 stairs steps as the obsertory is not well maintained and the view from up there (through glass) is super ordinary and not interesting as you see in the following photo I took:
