Rooküla Manor

Rooküla in Kose parish was split off from Paunküla in the early 17th century and later belonged to the Strassburgs, the von Nasackins, the Baumgartens and the Pahlens; from 1886 it was effectively a subsidiary of Lagedi, and its last owner, from 1913 to 1919, was Konstantin von Stackelberg. The fairly plain one-storey house of the mid-19th century became a forestry office after the Second World War, and it was destroyed by fire in 1968 while in the forestry's hands. A wooden forestry building was put up on the site in the 1970s and is now privately owned; of the manor itself only a small park remains.
