Jabara Manor

German: Alt Isenhof

Jabara was a dairy farm of Püssi manor, set up in 1796 on the site of an earlier village. Its manor house is gone, replaced by a wooden farmhouse in the 1920s or 1930s, but a large stone threshing barn with a hipped roof still stands alone in a field. Local lore adds a treasure tale: on Jabara land lay a stone shaped like a coffin, and the story goes that a Swede who spent his summers with the miller Lehtmets dug beneath it with the miller and pulled out a chest of treasure.

Eesti keeles

Jabara oli Püssi mõisa karjamõis, mis rajati 1796. aastal varasema küla kohale. Peahoonet ei ole säilinud, selle asemele ehitati 1920.–1930. aastatel puidust talumaja, kuid põllul seisab üksinda veel suur kelpkatusega kivist rehehoone. Kohalik pärimus lisab aardeloo: Jabara maadel olnud kirstukujuline kivi ja räägitakse, et üks mölder Lehtmetsa juures suvitanud rootslane kaevanud koos möldriga kivi alt välja aardekasti.
