Manor
Massu Manor
Massu mõis · German: Massau
The Massu estate (German k Massau) was founded probably in the early 16th century. The estate is first mentioned in 1596, when it belonged to Nicolaus Rask. At the beginning of the 17th century, the estate was for a shorter time owned by von Rosen, from whom he moved in 1613 into the possession of the noble family of the von Maydells. In the middle of the same century the estate was acquired by Otto von Uexküll from the Paadrema estate. After the North War, the estate belonged to the von Gernsdorffs from the Tuud estate. In 1765 the estate was acquired by von Pistohlkors, in whose hands the estate remained until 1840. In 1840, the estate was acquired by the owners of the neighbouring estate Voose von Bremen, who previously started the representative construction of a rather modest manor heart. The one-storey stylish classicist stone main building was then completed very soon, probably in the early 1840s.

Eesti keeles
Massu mõis (saksa k Massau ) on rajatud arvatavasti 16. sajandi algul. Mõisat on esmamainitud 1596. aastal, mil ta kuulus Nicolaus Raskile. 17. sajandi algul oli mõis lühemat aega von Rosenite omanduses, kelle käest ta 1613. aastal siirdus von Maydellide aadliperekonna valdusse. Sama sajandi keskpaigas omandas mõisa Paadrema mõisast pärit Otto von Uexküll. Põhjasõja järgselt kuulus mõis Tuudi mõisast pärinevatele von Gernsdorffidele. 1765. aastal omandasid mõisa von Pistohlkorsid, kelle kätte jäi mõis kuni 1840. aastani. 1840. aastal omandasid mõisa naabermõisa Voose omanikud von Bremenid, kes alustasid varem üsnagi tagasihoidliku mõisasüdame esinduslikku väljaehitamist. Ühekorruseline stiilne klassitsistlik kivist peahoone valmiski seejärel üsna pea, arvatavasti 1840te aastate algul.
