Manor
Kapu Manor
Kapu mõis · German: Kappo
At Kapu in Koeru parish the manor house itself is gone, pulled down in the early 20th century, and its wooden extension was rebuilt as a settler's farmstead after the land reform. What remains is an unusually full set of working buildings: a stable and carriage house, a granary, a stable-cowshed, a distillery, the miller's house and the ruins of a windmill. In Soviet times all of them were used by the collective farm called Majak, Russian for lighthouse, which is why the estate survived as a farm yard rather than a mansion.

Eesti keeles
Koeru kihelkonna Kapu mõisa peahoonet enam ei ole, see lammutati 20. sajandi alguses ning selle puidust juurdeehitis ehitati pärast maareformi ümber asundustaluks. Alles on aga haruldaselt täielik majandushoonete komplekt: tall-tõllakuur, ait, tall-laut, viinaköök, möldrimaja ja tuuliku varemed. Nõukogude ajal kasutas kõiki neid kolhoos Majak, mis tähendab vene keeles majakat, ning nii säilis mõis pigem taluõue kui härrastemajana.
