Anija Manor, Anija, Estonia

Anija Manor (in German Annia, earlier also Hannijöggi) was first mentioned in 1482, when it belonged to Hermann Zoege. The main building that has been preserved until today was erected by Matthias Staël von Holstein in the first years of the 19th century. Both the front façade as well as the middle part of the back side is decorated with unique stucco boards. The manor complex is one of the best preserved whole architectural ensembles in Estonia. The manor park is unique for the abundance of foreign tree species and has been taken under protection. The building is open for guests.

Anija manor ... I am still in LOVE and the closed cafe could not distort this feeling ... ? No coffee was left ... it was offered as soon as I had entered the main door of the manor ... FIVE STARS And Virgylia Soosaar's exhibition 'Trashart', on the top floor of the manor's barn-event center ... there is no point in talking about it, it must ... itself ... SEE

Stobi

Stobi was an ancient town of Paeonia located near Gradsko. It is considered by many to be the most famous archaeological site in North Macedonia. Stobi was built where the Erigon (Crna River) joins the Axios (Vardar), making it strategically important as a center for both trade and warfare.

Stobi developed from a Paeonian settlement established in the Archaic period. It is believed that in 217 BCE, Philip V annexed Paionia during his campaign against the Dardani who had entered Bylazora, the largest Paeonian town.

The city was first mentioned in writing by the historian Livy, in connection with a victory of Philip V of Macedon over the Dardani in 197 BC. In 168 BC, the Romans defeated Perseus and Macedonia was divided into four nominally independent republics. In 148 BC, the four areas of Macedonia were brought together in a unified Roman province. In the reign of Augustus the city grew in size and population.
