Inglisild is the bridge in Toomemägi, Tartu, Estonia.

Bridge was built between 1814 and 1816 and was designed by Johann Wilhelm Krause. Later, bridge was somewhat re-built and in 1836 construction works ended. Re-building was designed by Moritz Hermann von Jacobi.It is supposed that the name of bridge is very likely corruption of original "Englische Brücke" or "English bridge".The portrait relief in the middle of the bridge commemorates first rector of the re-founded Tartu University in 1802, Georg Friedrich Parrot, and bears inscription Otium reficit vires.

On 21 April 2012 bridge was damaged by fire.
