Virtual Reality (VR) based educational programs offer an educational and experiential look back at times gone by. The program is made unique by its innovative approach, by means of which forgotten structures and buildings are presented in the same places where they were once located. Students experience the changes that have taken place in the urban space or the landscape by travelling between different viewpoints and directly compare the experience gained with today’s environment. Such a solution has not been used before in Estonia and neighbouring countries.
Our virtual reality time travel experiences are an innovative and modern solution to make history lessons more exciting. Journeys to different parts of Estonia combine the central themes and integration opportunities of history and social studies and offer insights into the political events of Estonia’s recent history, which are also discussed in the syllabus of the basic school.
The core of the company is formed by historians who are alumni of the University of Tartu, whose in-depth and thorough archive work ensures that the views and descriptions depicted correspond to historical veracity and offer knowledge that cannot be found in conventional textbooks and non-fiction. Virtual reality time travel experience is the perfect means of revitalising learning, enabling you to experience places that have been destroyed. The translation of the audio guide in nine different languages offers an additional opportunity to link the course with, for example, a foreign language lesson.

VR-opplevelsen ga også en påminnelse om hvor destruktiv andre verdenskrig var for Estland, med all sin ødeleggelse av estiske byer og bygninger med all dens historie. Håper vi en gang i fremtiden kan oppleve at ORU CASTLE blir gjenoppbygget i all sin historiske prakt.

Спасибо Вам огромное! Обе группы просто в восторге от того, что узнали и увидели.

Pilti saja aasta tagusest Tartust saatis info, mis selgitas tollast olustikku ning pakkus originaalset ajaloolist informatsiooni, mida tavapärastest õpikutest ja aimekirjandusest ei leia. Õpilased said väga intensiivse, põneva ja autentse ajalookogemuse ning hakkasid kohe mõtlema ka, mida sellise virtuaalreaalsuse loomiseks teha on vaja: uurida arhiivimaterjali, taasluua ajaloolist keskkonda ja see 3D-modelleerida.

Next level attraction of taking you back in time and seeing how the place looked like in 1938. Very amazing, took our breath away. Recommend highly. You put VR googles on, visit points and can see the recreational side of how it used to be plus historic speach. Customer service very polite , tour lastas 30min. Keep it up.
