Kiviloo manor, Manor estate in Raasiku Parish, Harju County, Estonia
Kiviloo is a manor estate in Raasiku Parish where the main building was constructed between 1906 and 1910 by the von Stackelberg family with eclectic architectural details. The property sits in a rural setting and displays traces from different periods of building and renovation.
The site began as a bishop's castle in 1413 but was destroyed during the Livonian War in 1558. Centuries later, the von Stackelberg family rebuilt on this location by constructing the current manor house.
The name reflects how Estonian landowners shaped the countryside over generations. Walking around the property shows how the manor fit into the daily rhythm of rural life in this region.
The manor is privately owned with restricted public access, so check conditions before visiting. It sits in a rural area of Raasiku Municipality, making it best reached by car or arranged transportation.
The site contains overlapping architectural layers with remains of a medieval castle underneath or alongside the later manor building, linking two very different building eras. This layering makes it a place where you can see how Estonia's construction history changed dramatically over time.
