Sargvere Manor
Järvamaa
Sargvere Manor, located in Järvamaa, Estonia, is a historic estate founded in 1722 after being separated from Esna Manor. The manor is notable for its continuous inheritance through the female line, a rarity among Baltic estates. The main building, constructed in the 1760s in Baroque style, features preserved Rococo stucco ceilings and stands as a two-story stone structure surrounded by a mixed-style park. Historically, the manor housed the thickest common ash tree in Estonia. Following its expropriation, the manor served various community functions, including an eight-grade school during the Estonian SSR period, later becoming a library and a museum dedicated to the manor's history. Since 2021, Sargvere Manor has been privately owned, continuing its legacy as a cultural and architectural landmark in the region.
