Kärevere Manor

Kärevere mõis · German: Kerrefer

Kärevere in Türi parish was split off from Oisu in 1797 and passed through many noble hands, but its most interesting owners were Estonian. In 1874 Jaan Kuldkepp, who had rented the estate, bought it outright, a rare step for an Estonian at the time. In 1900 he gave it to his son Albert Kuldkepp, and in 1913 the manor was bought by the Tallinn branch of the Peasants' Land Bank, a bank founded to help farmers acquire their own land. So Kärevere was in Estonian hands well before the 1919 land reform took the remaining manors from the Baltic German nobility.

Eesti keeles

Türi kihelkonna Kärevere mõis eraldati 1797. aastal Oisust ja käis läbi paljude aadlike käte, kuid huvitavaimad omanikud olid eestlased. 1874. aastal ostis mõisa päriseks seda varem rentinud Jaan Kuldkepp, mis oli tolle aja eestlase kohta haruldane samm. 1900. aastal kinkis ta selle oma pojale Albert Kuldkepile ning 1913. aastal ostis mõisa Talurahva Põllupanga Tallinna osakond, pank, mis oli loodud talupoegade maaostu toetamiseks. Nii oli Kärevere eestlaste käes juba enne, kui 1919. aasta maareform võttis ülejäänud mõisad baltisaksa aadlilt.
