What history lies behind Ranna Manor?
Ranna Manor, also known as Tellerhof, was built during the brief period of Polish rule at the end of the 16th century on the site of the village of Tullistvere, which belonged to Warbek Castle. This historical context therefore involves three connections: the name Tellerhof, the former village of Tullistvere and its relationship to Warbek Castle. If you are interested in local history, you will therefore find not only a date here, but also the connection between the manor, village and castle. No present-day use or opportunity to visit can be inferred from this history of its origins.
