Vao Manor

Vao mõis · German: Waoküll

The Vao estate (German k Waoküll) was established at the end of the 17th century. Before the 1919 transfer, the estate belonged to the von Breverns. The main building with wooden half-hipped roof of the estate was probably erected around 1800. The stone wing building probably dates back to the late 19th century, when a small porch with arch application was also added to the right-hand end. For long decades, the building operated a local school that closed its doors in 2004. Some outbuildings (multiple rebuilt) have also been preserved. The estate is not to be confused with the Vao estate in Virumaa . According to the historical distribution, the estate belonging to the Parish of Koeru in Järvamaa remains in the territory of the municipality of Koeru in modern times.

Eesti keeles

Vao mõis (saksa k Waoküll ) rajati 17. sajandi lõpul. Enne 1919. aasta võõrandamist kuulus mõis von Brevernitele. Mõisa puidust poolkelpkatusega peahoone püstitati arvatavasti 1800. aasta paiku. Kivist tiibhoone pärineb arvatavasti 19. sajandi lõpupoolelt, mil parempoolsesse otsa lisati ka väike kaarakendega veranda. Pikki aastakümneid tegutses hoones kohalik kool, mis sulges uksed 2004. aastal. Säilinud on ka mõned kõrvalhooned (mitmeti ümber ehitatud). Mõisat ei maksa segi ajada Virumaal asuva Vao mõisaga . Ajaloolise jaotuse järgi Järvamaale Koeru kihelkonda kuulunud mõis jääb kaasajal Järvamaale Koeru valla territooriumile.
