Kissing Students (Estonian: Suudlevad tudengid) is sculpture and fountain in Raekoja plats, Tartu, Estonia. The structure locates in front of Tartu Town Hall. The sculpture is one of the most recognised symbols of Tartu, especially as Tartu is considered the "intellectual capital city" and "student capital" of the country, as it is home to the nation's oldest and most renowned university, the University of Tartu.[1][2][3]

The fountain was built in 1948 and it was used especially by newlyweds who sought to find luck for future when standing there.[1]

The sculpture was created in 1998 by Mati Karmin.[1]
