Vaimastvere Manor

Vaimastvere mõis · German: Waimastfer

Vaimastvere in Laiuse parish, recorded from 1552, was bought in 1750 by Christoph Jacob Schwartz. After his death in 1756, the estate passed in 1775 by fraud to Major Georg Friedrich von Hoyningen-Huene, but Schwartz's widow and children complained, and in 1779 the Senate ordered it returned to them. In 1796 it was bought by the vice-governor Balthasar von Campenhausen, who later became a Russian minister. The one-storey wooden manor house served as a school in the first Estonian republic; it burned in 1995 and was rebuilt in altered form, while a fieldstone granary survives.

Eesti keeles

Laiuse kihelkonna Vaimastvere mõisa, millest on teateid 1552. aastast, ostis 1750. aastal Christoph Jacob Schwartz. Pärast tema surma 1756. aastal läks mõis 1775. aastal pettuse teel major Georg Friedrich von Hoyningen-Huenele, kuid Schwartzi lesk ja lapsed kaebasid ning 1779. aastal otsustas senat mõisa neile tagastada. 1796. aastal ostis selle asekuberner Balthasar von Campenhausen, kellest sai hiljem Venemaa minister. Ühekorruselises puidust härrastemajas peeti Eesti Vabariigi ajal kooli; 1995. aastal maja põles ja taastati ümberehitatuna, säilinud on ka maakividest ait.
