Eidapere Manor

Eidapere mõis · German: Eidaperre

Eidapere manor in Vändra parish lost its main house to fire in 1930, when the building burned to the ground. Rather than leave an empty plot, the community built a schoolhouse on the very same spot, and it was finished in 1932. That building, not the manor itself, is what visitors see today beside the pond: the old school now serves as a student home and has been renovated step by step. It is a small example of how many Estonian manor sites were reused for village schools after independence.

Eesti keeles

Vändra kihelkonna Eidapere mõisa peahoone põles 1930. aastal maani maha. Tühja platsi asemel ehitati täpselt samasse kohta koolimaja, mis valmis 1932. aastal. Just seda hoonet, mitte mõisamaja ennast, näeb külastaja tänapäeval tiigi kaldal: vanas koolimajas asub nüüd õpilaskodu ja hoonet on järk-järgult renoveeritud. See on väike näide sellest, kuidas paljud Eesti mõisakohad said pärast iseseisvumist uue elu külakoolina.
