History
=Jäneda hill fort=
Jäneda hill fort was a hill fort used from the 10th to the 12th century. It consisted by a rampart reaching approximately {{convert|3|m|ft}}, surrounding a triangular courtyard. There were two towers at the entrance at the southern end and, possibly, another tower at the northern end. The fort was surrounded by a moat.{{cite book | last = Viirand| first = Tiiu| title = Estonia. Cultural Tourism | publisher = Kunst Publishers | year = 2004 | pages = 89–90 | isbn = 9949407184 }}
=Jäneda manor=
Jäneda manor was founded as an estate before 1510. The estate has belonged to several different aristocratic families. The present building was built 1913-1915 in an eclectic Art Nouveau style with strong neo-Gothic influences. In 1922, the interiors were rebuilt after designs by architect Anton Lembit Soans. Estonian composer Urmas Sisask has furnished a planetarium at the top of the tower.{{cite book | last = Sakk | first = Ivar | title = Estonian Manors - A Travelogue | publisher = Sakk & Sakk OÜ | year = 2004 | location = Tallinn | page = 119 | isbn = 9949-10-117-4 }}
In the early 1900s the manor was owned by Countess, later Baroness, Moura (Maria Zakrevskaya Benckendorff) Budberg, who has been called the "Mata Hari of Russia" and who was close to Sir R. H. Bruce Lockhart, Russian writer Maxim Gorky and H. G. Wells.{{cite book | last = Sakk | first = Ivar | title = Estonian Manors - A Travelogue | publisher = Sakk & Sakk OÜ | year = 2004 | location = Tallinn | page = 119 | isbn = 9949-10-117-4 }}{{cite web |url = http://www.janedaturism.ee/index.php?lang=eng&main_id=89|title = About Jäneda|access-date = 25 December 2012}}
