Suure-Jaani, a small town in Estonia's Viljandimaa county, is home to a mill pond and the stream that feeds it, giving the town its waterside character. The town has been associated with the Kapp family of composers, whose former home now operates as a museum, and has hosted a music festival since 1998. Two churches — Lutheran and Orthodox — stand in the centre, and the local cemetery holds the graves of several notable Estonian cultural figures.
