Viljandi County Highlights
Viljandi County serves as the center of Estonian folk culture, anchored by the 13th-century ruins of the Livonian Order’s castle and the scenic Lake Viljandi. The region preserves the unique heritage of the Mulgi people through ethnographic museums and the Estonian Traditional Music Center.
