Maidla Manor

Maidla mõis · German: Wrangelstein

Maidla in Lüganuse parish was first mentioned in 1465 as a property of the Maydell family, who gave it its Estonian name; geologists have even named a rock layer, the Maidla formation, after the estate. From 1689 it belonged to the Wrangells, and in 1764–1767 Georg Ludwig von Wrangell had the baroque manor house built to a design by Johann Paul Dürschmidt, replacing an earlier house destroyed in 1700. That house survives. In 1925 a six-grade school opened inside it, and today it is still Maidla School, joined with the kindergarten in 2013.

Eesti keeles

Lüganuse kihelkonna Maidla mõisa mainitakse esmakordselt 1465. aastal Maydellide valdusena, kellelt pärineb ka mõisa eestikeelne nimi; geoloogid on mõisa järgi nimetanud isegi kivimikihi, Maidla kihistiku. 1689. aastast kuulus mõis Wrangellidele ning 1764–1767 lasi Georg Ludwig von Wrangell Johann Paul Dürschmidti projekti järgi ehitada barokse peahoone 1700. aastal hävinud varasema asemele. See hoone on alles. 1925. aastal alustas selles tööd kuueklassiline kool ja praegugi on see Maidla Kool, mis liideti 2013. aastal lasteaiaga.
