By the historical distribution the manor was in
Viru-Nigula Parish
in Virumaa County. By the present administrative distribution it belongs to
the Viru-Nigula Municipality in
Lääne-Virumaa County.
The estate was first mentioned in 1443. In the Middle Ages it was built to serve as a
feudal stronghold.
The
Baroque
palace, built by Gustav Horn in the 1650s, was destroyed in the Great Northern War. The manor house later belonged to the von Löwenwoldes and von Tiesenhausens; the two-storey
Early-Classicist
main building established in the 1770s still remains, but received its
historicist
form in the 1880s. The estate is now privately owned and under restoration.
