Saku Manor is located in the middle of Saku town and dates back to 1622. The manor house itself was constructed in 1820 and is among the best examples of classical architecture in Estonia. It is thought that the building was designed by one of the most famous architects of that period – Carlo Rossi.

The brewing traditions in Estonia and Livonia date back to 1820, when Count Karl Friedrich Rehbinder built a distillery and a brewery on his estate on the bank of the Vääna River. From the same year onward the beer masters of Saku have brewed good Estonian beer from the best local groundwater, malt, hops and yeast.

As the oldest brewery in Estonia, Saku Brewery takes pleasure in introducing to you its history, production process and products.

During the excursion, some time you will spend in the brewery learning a few facts about the production processes and some will be spent on tasting of the products of Saku Brewery - water, soft drinks, cider and beer.

 

After that, we will have a guided tour to the best preserved medieval old town in the Northern Europe. The tour guide will introduce the country and its people, the history of Tallinn and the Old Town, Tallinn's number one attraction.

The quite complex collection of buildings was transferred to the Russian army in 1766, which resulted in the establishment of an officers’ club and a casino. The present division of rooms dates back to the 1830s. In the rooms of the Teachers’ House modern technical solutions are combined with a unique historical interior.
