History

The Estonian Championships were first held in Tallinn in 1917; Johannes Johanson won the men's category (four competitors), Hilda Laane won the women's title, and Hilda Laane / Johannes Johanson took the pairs' event (four pairs).

During the Soviet occupation and annexation (1940–91), some Estonians competed at the Soviet Championships. In 1991, after the restoration of independence, the Estonian Skating Union was founded and admitted as a provisional member of the International Skating Union.
