Eesti Rahvusringhääling (ERR) – Estonian Public Broadcasting – is a publicly funded radio and television organization created in Estonia on 1 June 2007 to take over the functions of the formerly separate Eesti Raadio (ER) (Estonian Radio) and Eesti Televisioon (ETV) (Estonian Television), under the terms of the Estonian National Broadcasting Act. The first chair of ERR is Margus Allikmaa, the former chair of Eesti Raadio.

The Act, which was passed by the Estonian Parliament on 18 January 2007, also appointed Eesti Ringhäälingunõukogu (RHN) (the Estonian Broadcasting Council) to act as the regulatory body for ERR's five national radio channels and single television station.

Eesti Raadio

Regular radio broadcasting in Estonia began on 18 December 1926. As part of the public broadcasting organization ERR, Eesti Raadio (ER) receives a state grant to fund the operation of its five national radio channels. ER participates in a number of projects within the European Broadcasting Union, of which it is a full member, notably in musical exchanges and concert series. In addition, ER's Radio Drama Department has won international recognition at events organized by the EBU.

ER's five national radio channels are:

• Vikerraadio – a full-format programme
• Raadio 2 – a music station aimed primarily at listeners aged 15 to 29
• Klassikaraadio – recorded and live classical and folk music, jazz, and cultural programming
• Raadio 4 – programming for linguistic minorities, in particular Estonia's Russian-speaking community
• Raadio Tallinn – news and information for foreign listeners, including elements from Vikerradio, the BBC, Deutsche Welle, and Radio France Internationale.
