Lagedi Manor

German: Laakt

In 1714, in the middle of the Great Northern War, Tiesenhausen sold Lagedi to Alexander Menshikov, Peter the Great's favourite and the new governor-general of Estonia. Menshikov built a new residence here and named the estate Fürsenhof, after his princely title. It was later leased to Sebastian Ernst von Manstein, and after his death his widow Dorothea ran it as tenant until 1757. The last owner before 1919 was Rudolf von Harpe. Parts of the main house date from the 17th to the 19th centuries, and it was rebuilt again in Soviet times.

Eesti keeles

1714. aastal, keset Põhjasõda, müüs Tiesenhausen Lagedi mõisa Peeter I soosikule, Eestimaa kindralkubernerile Aleksandr Menšikovile. Menšikov ehitas siia uue elumaja ja nimetas mõisa oma tiitli järgi Fürsenhofiks ehk vürsti mõisaks. Hiljem renditi mõis Sebastian Ernst von Mansteinile ja pärast tema surma pidas seda rentnikuna tema lesk Dorothea kuni 1757. aastani. Viimane omanik enne 1919. aastat oli Rudolf von Harpe. Peahoone osad pärinevad 17.–19. sajandist ning seda on ümber ehitatud ka nõukogude ajal.
