Kõrgessaare Manor
Kõrgessaare mõis
A 19th-century red-brick manor that was once a silk factory and now operates as a restaurant and small guesthouse, making it a good place to stop on the way to the west of the island.
The main building of Kõrgessaare Manor dates from the late 19th century. Its neo-Gothic architecture, built from red limestone and brick, is striking. During the Soviet era the estate housed an artificial silk factory, which is why it is also known as 'Viskoosa'. After restoration, the manor now runs a restaurant and accommodation. In summer you can dine in the courtyard, where the menu centers on local sea fish and lamb. Located about 20 km west of Kärdla, it makes a convenient stop on the way to the Kõpu Peninsula and Reigi Church.
