The village is also very old, first mentioned in 1241. However, the only evidence of it is the manor. Although, the first mentioning of the manor dates back to 1465, the present Baroque building was erected between 1764-1767 by the architect Djurshmidta (Durschmidt). Since 1925, it has been operated as a school. So, it is not worth to get inside. But take pictures from the outside unlimitedly – the building is very beautiful.

Vana tuhamägi
Old Koksovaya Mountain is completely covered with vegetation, so you will not immediately notice that this elevation is artificial. You can climb the mountain via a steep path that starts with a rusty iron staircase at the parking lot, or along a race track, which is longer but more comfortable. From the top of Vana-Tuhamägi, there is a beautiful view of the local landscape and the city with its huge factory. In good weather, the Gulf of Finland is also perfectly visible. The mountain is a centre of sports tourism all year round, hosting motor racing, cycling and winter sports events. From the side of the tourist center, a 2.5-km-long health trail goes around the mountain.
Jumalaema Kaitsmise Kirik
It was built in the 20th century as a Catholic church, but in 1940, when wooden prayer houses were taken away from the Orthodox and Lutherans, it began to be used by the Orthodox and Lutherans for worship. In 1999, the Lutheran community left the church, and it became fully Orthodox. On June 22, 1995 the church was consecrated by the Archbishop of Tallinn and All Estonia Cornelius.
Püha Klaara Kirik
