For a long time Mooste was a sleepy estate whose Nolcken owners lived in Courland, but in the early 20th century Eduard Georg von Nolcken moved here and things changed fast. In 1909 the Riga architect August Reinberg, who also designed the Latvian State Bank and Tallinn's Nobility Credit Bank, built him a neo-Renaissance house in the manner of a French château, along with a distillery. The hall has a floor-to-ceiling stove of unglazed pot tiles. After 1919 Mooste became a state farm experimenting with grain, potatoes and grassland, and in Soviet times a pedigree livestock farm. The park runs down to Mooste lake.

Eesti keeles

Pikka aega oli Mooste uinuv mõis, mille omanikud Nolckenid elasid Kuramaal, kuid 20. sajandi alguses kolis siia Eduard Georg von Nolcken ja asjad hakkasid kiiresti muutuma. 1909. aastal ehitas Riia arhitekt August Reinberg, kelle kavandatud on ka Läti Riigipank ja Tallinna Aadli krediidipank, talle prantsuse lossistiilis uusrenessansliku härrastemaja ja viinavabriku. Saalis on põrandast laeni ulatuv glasuurimata potikividest ahi. Pärast 1919. aastat sai Moostest riigimõis, mis katsetas teravilja- ja kartulikasvatust ning kultuurheinamaid, nõukogude ajal tõuloomakasvatuse sovhoos. Park ulatub Mooste järveni.
