Wredeby

Wredeby is a manor house on an estate in Kouvola with large windows and ornate details reflecting the building style of its time. The grounds include grass and gravel areas with outbuildings that together form a complete historical property.

The manor was built as an administrative center for an estate managed by local noble families controlling surrounding lands. For centuries it served as both residence and business headquarters for these families.

The manor is part of a historical settlement that shows how wealthy families lived across generations. Today visitors can see how the rooms and grounds reveal the daily habits and social structures of that era.

The estate sits in a rural setting with open grounds and is easily accessible for visitors wanting to explore the buildings at their own pace. Sturdy footwear is recommended since the paths are made of gravel and grass.

The estate contains a private airstrip positioned between a river and a lake, offering pilots a chance to practice short runway landings. This unusual feature shows how the historical site remains active in modern use.
