Porkuni castle [ edit ]
The new manor house
In 1479, a castle was built on an island in the lake by the bishop of Tallinn Simon von der Borch . Porkuni castle (German : Schloss Borkholm ) was a four-sided structure surrounding a central courtyard, where a small church stood. In each corner of the castle stood a cannon-tower, and there was also a gate tower which is still preserved, albeit with a few later alterations. Judging from the remains, the castle was built in different stages and the walls were gradually made higher.[2]
The castle was destroyed during the Livonian War .
Porkuni manor distillery
In 1870–74, a new manor house was built at the site by the landowner at the time, Otto Ludwig von Rennenkampff. Perhaps not surprisingly, it is built in a neo-Gothic style, with turrets and other details inspired by a romantic perception of the Middle Ages. The ceremonial rooms of the manor, on the first floor, have been restored. The interior also houses a wrought iron staircase and a noteworthy art nouveau cocklestove .[3] [4] aql .[5]
