Kopli was a manor of the town of Tallinn on the Kopli peninsula, also called Telliskopli; its German name, Ziegelkoppel, means brick paddock. Its leases came with an unusual duty: tenants had to plant a set number of oak trees on the peninsula during their tenancy. The oak was needed for the wooden pipes of the town's water supply and for making gun carriages for artillery. Today the area lies in the Kopli, Sitsi and Paljassaare districts of North Tallinn; the manor centre at Maleva street 2d keeps a few rebuilt buildings and fragments of greenery.

Eesti keeles

Kopli mõis ehk Telliskopli mõis (saksa keeles Ziegelkoppel) oli Tallinna linnamõis Kopli poolsaarel. Selle rendilepingutega kaasnes ebatavaline kohustus: rentnikud pidid rendiaja jooksul istutama poolsaarele kindla arvu tamme. Tammepuitu vajati linna veevarustuse puittorustike ja suurtükilafettide valmistamiseks. Tänapäeval jääb ala Põhja-Tallinna Kopli, Sitsi ja Paljassaare asumisse; mõisasüdames aadressil Maleva tänav 2d on alles mõned ümberehitatud hooned ja haljastuse osi.
