Place and history

Teenuse is located on the Teenuse jõgi river of the same name , the upper and middle reaches of the Kasari jõgi . A 67.5 m long bridge crosses the river in Teenuse. It was built in 1908. From 1947 to 1996 there was a hydrometric station in Teenuse operated by the Estonian Meteorological and Hydrological Institute ( Eesti Meteoroloogia ja Hüdroloogia Instituut ).

The village was first mentioned in a document in 1456. The Teenuse estate was established in the 16th century. It had been owned by the noble von Maydell family since 1765 at the latest . Teenuse is the birthplace of the Baltic German painter Friedrich Ludwig von Maydell (1795–1846).

The current manor house dates from the 18th century. It was badly damaged by arson in 1905, but then renovated and rebuilt. During the Soviet occupation of Estonia, the manor house, which is surrounded on three sides by the Teenuse jõgi and Luiste jõgi rivers, housed the town's cultural center and a primary school until 1996. Today it houses the village library. The administrator's house and the granary with a red brick chimney from the 18th century have also been preserved. The three hectare park is embedded in the natural surroundings.
