Abruka is an 8.78 km² Estonian island in the Gulf of Riga, 4 km south of the island of Saaremaa. Together with few neighbouring smaller islands (Vahase, Kasselaid, Linnusitamaa and Kirjurahu) Abruka forms the village of Abruka, which is part of Lääne-Saare Parish, Saare County. The village has a population of 33 (as of 1 January 2011) and an area of 10.1 km². The first records about the population on Abruka originate from the Middle Ages, when the Bishop of Ösel-Wiek founded a horse breeding manor (ドイツ語:''Abro'') there. Permanent population developed in the 18th century. 1881–1972 an elementary school operated on Abruka. Abruka is the site of a Central European-type broadleaf forest, which is rare in the region. To protect this a nature reserve was created in 1937. There's a library (located in the harbour building) and a museum which is located on the side of the former manor park in the oldest building on Abruka (The Abruka House).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.abruka.pri.ee/ajalugu.htm )〕 Abruka can be reached by postboat ''Heili'' from Roomassaare harbour in Kuressaare.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.abruka.ee/english/asukoht.html )〕 The twin writers Jüri Tuulik and Ülo Tuulik (born 1940) were born on Abruka.〔 File:Abruka OnEarth WMS.png|Satellite image of Abruka.
