MANOR BUILDING

The oldest part of the manor house is a two-storey baroque stone building built in 1760, located on the right side of the building. 19th century the manor house was supplemented with several extensions. The last reconstruction was carried out between 1899 and 1902, during which the government building on the left was also included in the building. Today, the manor is an extremely long and articulated historicist main building, built in several stages.

HISTORY

Avanduse manor was first mentioned in 1494. In the 15th century, the manor belonged to von Taubede. 17th century was owned by the von Fock manor, but it was burnt down in the Great Northern War. In the 19th century, Friedrich Benjamin von Lütke, a geographer, a well-known Russian sailor who had made several voyages around the world and a researcher in the Arctic Ocean and the president of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, bought the manor as a summer home. F. B. von Lütke lived in the manor until his death. The last owner of the manor was Konstantin Karl von Bremen from 1888 until the transfer of the manor with the land reform of 1919.

The author of the last reconstruction, which lasted from 1899 to 1902, was the architect Rudolf von Engelhardt. Major reconstructions took place in the right wing of the main building, where a large hall and a winter garden were built to connect the government building to the main building. As a result, a unique Neo-Renaissance building was formed.

Until 1955, the manor housed the Avanduse Agricultural School of the People's Commissariat of Agricultural Work, later the Simuna State Farm Center. Until 2005, the municipality of Avanduse was located in the building, but in 2005 the rural municipalities of Avanduse and Väike-Maarja joined. In November 2010, the manor house became private property.
