Norra Manor

Norra Manor is a two-story estate building in Järva County with early Classicist design and symmetrical facades. The structure shows traditional Estonian architectural features characteristic of noble properties from its construction period.

The manor was first documented in 1569 and remained in the von Knorring family's hands for centuries. Major reconstruction work took place during the 1790s.

The interior walls of Norra Manor contained numerous paintings that represented the artistic preferences of Estonian nobility during the 18th century.

The estate is undergoing restoration work to recover from significant deterioration that left it in ruins during the late 20th century. Visitors should expect limited access and check conditions before planning a visit.

Restoration efforts focus on preserving original wall paintings from the 18th century that survived multiple ownership transitions across centuries. These artworks provide rare insight into the aesthetic choices of the families who lived here.
