Vana-Piigandi Manor

Vana-Piigandi mõis · German: Pigant, Alt-

The Peigand estate (German k Alt-Pigant) dates back to the Middle Ages, having been founded in the early 16th century. From 1813 until the 1919 dispossession, the estate was owned by the noble family of the von Ungern-Sternbergs. The last owner of the estate was Gerhard von Ungern-Sternberg. The long, early-classic stone main building was erected in the early 19th century of the estate, probably during the acquisition period of the von Ungern-Sterbergs after 1813. The estate also had a number of outbuildings and a large park located in the area between Ihamaru-Kanepi Highway and the picturesque Peigand Lake. There is still a left-hand end of the main building in modern times, which is used as a residential building. The outbuildings have been preserved to us either as ruins or in a converted form. According to the historical distribution, the estate, which belonged to the Kanepi parish in Võrumaa, remains in the territory of the Kanepi municipality in Kälva County in modern times.

Eesti keeles

Piigandi mõis (saksa k Alt-Pigant ) pärineb keskajast, olles asutatud 16. sajandi algul. Alates 1813. aastast kuni 1919. aasta võõrandamiseni kuulus mõis von Ungern-Sternbergide aadliperekonna omandusse. Mõisa viimane omanik oli Gerhard von Ungern-Sternberg. Pikk varaklassitsistlik kivist peahoone püstitati mõisa 19. sajandi algul, arvatavasti von Ungern-Sterbergide omandusajal peale 1813. aastat. Mõisas oli ka hulk kõrvalhooneid ja suur park, mis paiknesid Ihamaru-Kanepi maantee ning maalilise Piigandi järve vahelisel alal. Peahoonest on kaasajal alles vasakpoolne ots, mida kasutatakse elamuna. Kõrvalhooned on meieni säilinud kas varemetena või ümber ehitatud kujul. Ajaloolise jaotuse järgi Võrumaale Kanepi kihelkonda kuulunud mõis jääb kaasajal Põlvamaale Kanepi valla territooriumile.
