The Centre for Medieval Studies is an academic research centre of the Tallinn University. 

The Centre has three main aims:
 - to create an innovative and supportive forum for scholars working with the Middle Ages;
 - to encourage and initiate interdisciplinary research and collaboration;
 - and, to coordinate, promote and offer information about medieval studies in Estonia.

The prime emphasis in the Centre\'s research interests focuses on the medieval Europeanization process and the cross-cultural interaction in the frontier areas, with a special emphasis on the comparative research into the political, social, economic, cultural and religious integration of the Baltic Sea region (10th-16th centuries).

The Centre takes part in national and international scientific cooperation; regularly holds seminars, lecture-series and conferences; launches research projects; as well as develops multidisciplinary curricula for academic graduate and postgraduate training in medieval studies at the University of Tallinn.

The Centre was officially formed in 2005 and it associates researchers and postgraduate students from various Estonian universities and research institutions, and from a wide range of disciplines, such as history, archaeology, art history, theology, and folklore and literature studies.
