Anija Manor

Anija's two-storey stone house of the 17th century may have been the model for Maardu, Palmse and Aa, which survive to this day; even then, ruins of an older medieval house were recorded nearby. The present baroque house with classicist touches was finished in 1800–1802 for Matthias Staël von Holstein. A year after the 1905 revolution the estate was sold to Princess Mary Lieven, who had just married Otto von Wahl, and the Wahls tripled the park, planting the foreign trees that are still its pride. A school used the house from 1924 to 1975 and again in 1990–2002, and a municipal foundation now runs it.

Anija 17. sajandi kahekorruseline kivist peahoone võis olla eeskujuks Maardu, Palmse ja Aa mõisahoonetele, mis on säilinud tänini; juba toona märgiti selle lähedal ka vanema, keskaegse mõisamaja varemeid. Praegune klassitsistlike sugemetega barokne peahoone valmis aastatel 1800–1802 Matthias Staël von Holsteini ajal. Aasta pärast 1905. aasta revolutsiooni müüdi mõis vürstinna Mary Lievenile, kes oli just abiellunud Otto von Wahliga, ning Wahlid suurendasid parki kaks-kolm korda ja istutasid sinna võõrpuuliike, mis on pargi uhkuseks tänini. Kool tegutses majas 1924–1975 ja uuesti 1990–2002; praegu haldab mõisa valla sihtasutus.
