Lodjakoda (barge hall) is a one-of-a-kind venue in Tartu. It is a home for a group of enthusiasts who renovate historical ships. The welcome reception will take place in the rooms where they renovate the ships so you can have a look at the real workshop. If you are lucky enough, you can see two wooden barges in the dock and have a closer look at these. The venue is a short walk away from the city centre along the river Emajõgi and is situated on the banks of the river near a beach.
