The main building of Koitsanlahti Manor, which is owned by the Finnish National Board of Antiquities & Historical Monuments, can currently only be viewed from the outside. Koitsanlahti Manor is Finland’s only ‘granted manor’,and as such, has a cultural heritage and history which are unique in the area which is now modern Finland. The Manor traces the history of the period when Sweden was a Great Power as well as the history of the ‘granted lands’, and the situation of Finnish peasantry from the 17th to the 19th century.

In the courtyard of the Manor stands a memorial, 'Stones of Tribulations', which was erected there in 1958 to commemorate the suffering of past generations.
