 park, estate (manor / mansion land), interesting place, listed building / architectural heritage

The estate that belonged to Padise Abbey in the Middle Ages was originally constructed to be a fortified dwelling home (the remaining ruins are those of the building altered in the 19th century). Later, the manor house was long associated with von Stackelbergs, who constructed a long Italian-like one-storey late Baroque main building in the 1790s. The building is now used as a schoolhouse and at both of its ends there are little round dome towers. By the historical distribution the manor was in Keila Parish in Harjumaa County. By the present administrative distribution it belongs to the Harku Municipality in Harjumaa County.
