Pajusi manor

Ahja Manor dates back to the Middle Ages (from 1553). The two-storey main building of the baroque Ahja Manor with a half-hipped roof, completed in the late 1740s, was one of the most luxurious in Southern Estonia at that time. In the years 1929–1997, a school operated in the manor house.In 2007, there was a fire in the building and only the walls remained. Several smaller buildings have been preserved from the manor, although most of them have been rebuilt. There is also a beautiful park with a pond which is under nature and heritage protection.The manor with the park is known to many thanks to the book Little Illimar based on the childhood memories of the folk writer Friedebert Tuglas from Ahja.

Stanislaw Rogosinsky, a native of Poland, established the Rogosi Manor. From 1629 to 1776 the manor belonged to Herman von Liebsdorff and was later given to the von Glasenapp family as Herman's daughter's dowry. From 1934, after the Glasenapp family was dispossessed of the manor, a school operates in the manor. When place names were translated into Estonian in 1939, the village was named Ruusmäe, but the manor is still known as Rogosi. In summer 1990, Otto von Glasenapp, son of the owner of the manor visited his old home.Useful information: There is a museum of local lore in the barbican, which is open in summer. Watercolors of Joh. Chr. Brotze have been preserved as sources of the manor's history.
