Porkuni Manor, Medieval manor estate in Lääne-Viru County, Estonia

The manor complex includes a hexagonal gate tower, slate-built structures including a main building, carriage house, stables, granary, and garden walls.

The estate originated in 1479 as a stronghold for the Bishop of Tallinn, with the current main building constructed between 1870 and 1874.

The manor presents architectural elements from different periods, featuring a preserved medieval gate tower and a nineteenth-century neo-Gothic main building.

The main building functions as a school for hearing-impaired students, while the gate tower houses the Paemuuseum dedicated to local lime production.

Located on an island in Lake Porkuni, the manor includes preserved elements from both medieval fortress and nineteenth-century residential architecture.
