Võru Institute – the home of Võro language

Võru Institute is the creative home of Võro language and culture: here, you can ask about the language and customs of Võro.

There is an exhibition sale of books in the Võro language. The e-shop Umapuut of Old-Võromaa sells books in the Võro language, CDs with Võro songs, a wide selection of local crafts, and souvenirs with Võro symbols. If you wish, you can order a short course of the Võro language as well as lectures or presentations on the Võro language and cultural space at the institute.
