http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com Before you think, "I'm not going to watch a video about a church," St. John's Church was built in the 14th century and is Tartu's oldest surviving church. The church was quiet when we first walked in and then the organist began tuning up before beginning a virtuoso and dramatic performance of music that echoed around the church. We sat mesmerized, looking at the 14th century oils from the gospel and terra cotta statues, both inside and out. A person couldn't have asked for a more spine tingling experience and St. John's will be my favorite memory of Tartu. Please don't forget to Subscribe Share and Like. Thanks.
