It’s a beautiful building, in some places you can see a log house inside) it’s a shame that it’s being destroyed ((
"The Awandus estate (German: Awandus) was first mentioned in 1494, when it belonged to von Taubed. In the 17th century, the estate belonged to von Fock, and from 1849 to von Lütke. In 1882, the estate became the property of the von Bremens. The last owner of the estate before the transfer in 1919 there was Konstantin von Bremen.
The extremely long and articulated historic main building of the estate was built in several stages and took on its final form at the beginning of the 20th century. The oldest part is the right end of the building, which is a two-story Baroque stone building, built around 1760. In the 19th century, several extensions were added to this left wing.
The author of the last reconstruction, which lasted from 1899 to 1902, was the architect Rudolf von Engelhardt. It also included the old government building on the left, which was extensively rebuilt. The result was a unique building with neo-Renaissance elements, partly two-story, partly one-story. The building houses the Avanduse parish government.
In 1849-82, the Avanduse estate belonged to Admiral Friedrich von Lütke, who made several trips around the world and explored the northern coast of Russia in the Novaya Zemlya region. He was also president of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences"

In the days of the Simuna EMMTUI state farm, work was done in this building. But now it has been unused for many years, it's a pity!!!

This is well built and simple yet scenic. This would make a great scene for old school organized crime showdown with secret strike team and legit bad guys. Would make a great movie. Oh wow these marks of bullets are still on walls. I know nothing, nothing at all. More marks about Kilroy was here! Who is this Kilroy didn't Hitler and Stalin figure that out. There is rumors of strange songs being sang here, American Christmas songs. Grandma got ran over by a reindeer and others. In the future I predict onsite will record all events for future generations. If these walls could tell a story. My entry here would make sense. Kato> Give my regards to Leslie.

Very strange manor. All different architecture styles they build in row one after another. Absolutely does not suite each other. Maybe because of it quite cute. Needs refurbishment.
