Ao Manor

Almost nothing is left of Ao manor: of the distillery and the manor house only high cellar walls remained, and today there is just a barely visible site. What draws people here is a memorial stone to Friedrich Robert Faehlmann, the doctor and scholar who was one of the founders of the Learned Estonian Society and an early champion of Estonian culture. He grew up at Ao, where his father Heinrich Johann Faehlmann worked as the manor's steward.

Eesti keeles

Ao mõisast ei ole peaaegu midagi alles: viinaköögist ja häärberist jäid järele vaid kõrged keldrimüürid ning tänapäeval on näha vaevumärgatav ase. Inimesi toob siia Friedrich Robert Faehlmanni mälestuskivi. Arst ja teadlane Faehlmann oli Õpetatud Eesti Seltsi üks rajajaid ja eesti kultuuri varajane eestkõneleja. Ta oli pärit Ao mõisast, kus tema isa Heinrich Johann Faehlmann töötas mõisavalitsejana.
