Liuksiala Manor, Manor house in Kangasala, Finland.
Liuksiala Manor is a manor house in Kangasala featuring a stone cellar from the 16th century at its foundation. The main building displays architectural elements that were reshaped during an extensive 1902 renovation.
The property came to Queen Kaarina Maununtytär in 1573 after her separation from King Eric XIV of Sweden. It became the seat of the Meurman family beginning in the early 1800s.
The Meurman family has called this place home since 1821, shaping how it has developed over time. Their long stewardship reflects the role of such estates in Finnish society.
The property is today privately owned and remains closed to visitors, though it can be viewed from public areas surrounding it. It is best appreciated from the roads and paths outside its boundaries.
A chapel designed by architect Josef Stenbäck was built on the manor grounds between 1917 and 1932 as a later addition. This religious structure stands in contrast to the much older stone buildings at the heart of the estate.
