Keila-Joa Manor, also known as Schloss Fall, is one of the most notable historical buildings in northern Estonia. Built between 1831 and 1833 by architect Andrei Stackenschneider, it is among the first examples of neo-Gothic architecture in the country. The manor belonged to Count Alexander von Benckendorff, whose family graves remain nearby in Meremõisa Park. In the 19th century, it became a cultural hub, hosting the Russian imperial family, soprano Henriette Sontag, composer Alexei Lvov, and others. In the 20th century, it housed the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (1927–1940) and was later used by the Red Army. Today, Keila-Joa Manor and its romantic park are popular tourist destinations. The nearby Keila Waterfall adds to the charm, creating a unique blend of history and nature.
