Leetse manor, Manor estate in Harju-Madise parish, Estonia.
Leetse Manor is an estate property in northern Estonia near the Baltic coast, featuring a limestone cliff overlooking Lahepere Bay with pine forest surroundings. The grounds display natural terraces that descend toward the rocky shoreline.
The manor was established in the 17th century and received its main building in the 1860s under the von Ramm family's ownership. A major fire later destroyed the main house, shaping how the property appears today.
The estate reflects the building style and way of life of Estonian noble families, forming part of a larger network of historical Baltic German properties in the region.
Access to the main estate grounds requires permission, but adjacent public areas offer camping facilities and roofed campfire sites. Visitors should check ahead to learn which sections are freely accessible and where camping is allowed.
The estate manager's house has been preserved, while the main building lies in ruins following a destructive fire. This contrast between the intact manager's dwelling and the destroyed main structure tells a story of loss and endurance.
