Vääna Manor, Medieval manor in Keila Parish, Estonia.

The manor features two circular pavilions with decorated vaulted roofs on the wings of an extended main house built in late Baroque style.

First documented in 1325 as a fortified residence for Padise Abbey, the current structure was constructed between 1784 and 1797 by the von Stackelberg family.

The manor's pavilions contained an art collection with works from notable painters Hans Holbein and Claude Lorrain during the von Stackelberg family period.

The manor complex now serves as an educational facility, housing a kindergarten-elementary school established in 1855, along with a public library.

A narrow-gauge railroad connected the manor to Tallinn in 1913, built to supply Peter the Great's Naval Fortress during military operations.
