Mis seob filme “Inimesed sõdurisinelis”, “Tulivesi” ja “Vanad ja kobedad saavad jalad alla”? Need filmid on tehtud Kolgakülas, Harjumaa Hollywoodis. Osaledes kahetunnisel retkel, saad hea ülevaate põhjustest, mille tõttu on Kolgaküla Eesti üks populaarsemaid filmimise kohti.

Muuksi stronghold hill was established on a naturally suitable small cape. At the location of the stronghold, the western side is up to 10 metres higher than the surrounding ground. 

Its main task was most likely to be the coastguard and lighthouse.
The stronghold area was protected by a sharp and high cliff from the north and by an arched stone wall from the south. Today, the courtyard of the stronghold is surrounded by a partially preserved low sodded wall.

Archaeological excavations have proven that the site was first inhabited during the first millennium BC, the castle was established at the end of prehistory, and some of the findings are probably from the 11th to 13th century.

Toolse Order Castle is one of the more recent medieval castles on the northern coast of Estonia. It is also a castle located closest to the sea. The initial fortified manor house was probably erected by the order in the 14th century with the purpose of protecting the port, trade location and routes. During the Livonian War, the castle passed on through many hands and finally ended up in the possession of the Swedish troops. It was entirely destroyed in the Great Northern War at the beginning of the 18th century.

Today inside the ruins: · Excursions are offered to provide insight into history · An exciting adventure path was created · A pirate ship · Treasure quests and games of skill are organised on advance notice

The first written record of Vihula manor in Lahemaa National Park dates back to 1501. At the time it belonged to the Danish baron Hans von Lode. Later, the manor was damaged by a fire during the Great Northern War, after which it was purchased by the Wekebros who bequeathed it to their daughter’s family, the von Helffreichs. In 1810, it was purchased by Alexander von Schubert.
The manor you see today at Vihula was built during the era of the von Schuberts, between 1820 and 1880. It has since been fully restored and renovated, and now houses a fine restaurant and luxury spa hotel. It hosts concerts, conferences, weddings, and other events. Did you know that visitors are welcome to wander the grounds and admire the views of the manor at their leisure?

Võhmuta mõis (Wechmuth Manor) rajati 17. sajandi teisel poolel, mil ta oli Eesti üks stiilsemaid klassitsistlikke väikemõisaid. Tõnäoliselt 18. sajandi teisest poolest pärinev puidust ühekorruseline barokne peahoone ehitati 19. sajandi alguses ümber lameda plekk-katusega klassitsistlikuks hooneks.  

Peahoone vastu teisele poole auhoovi rajati klassitsistlik väravahoone – võiduvärav, mis on Eestis ainus omataoline. Väravat peetakse 1812. aasta Vene-Prantsuse sõja mälestusmärgiks.

Mõis on eraomanduses ja korrastamisel.
