Taali mõis (saksa keeles Staëlenhof). From the 17th century until the transfer in 1919, the estate belonged to the noble family of the Staels von Holsteins. Hence both the Estonian and German names of the estate. The last owner of the estate was Wilhelm Ivan Baron Stahl von Holstein. In 1852, a fairly large neo-Renaissance mansion was built from local limestone. The left wing of the mansion consisted of a veranda (winter garden) and a hall with arched windows. The middle part was two stories high. The one-story wing on the right ended in a three-story tower. In front of the entrance to the building is an open balcony with columns or a gazebo with arches. In 1934, the then owner of the Defense League demolished two thirds of the manor building and sold it to Tallinn as building material. Only the one-story part on the right with the tower remains. The part of the castle that remained during World War II was not destroyed. During Soviet times, the remaining part was used as an office for the local agricultural department, and then as a vocational training center. In the last years of the Tori state farm, the entire foundation of the manor house was excavated, but it was not restored. Today, the remaining part of the manor house is privately owned.

Beautiful, quiet place. Good to keep the old buildings in order! The woman's grandfather was the daughter of a family in this manor.

Well done. Sadly, half of the mansion is still here today.
