Adavere Manor

[edit]

Adavere Manor (German: Addafer) was established as an estate in the 17th century. The estate has belonged to several Baltic German aristocratic families during the centuries. The present building was constructed in 1892–1893. Some original interior details survive to this day, and Art Nouveau ceiling decorations were uncovered in 2000.[2]
