From the outside, the building is almost totally asymmetrical. The extravagant, archaic art nouveau style has also been transmitted to the interior.

The history of the castle situated on the Latvian border begins in the 16th century, when it belonged to the von Rehbinders. Its Estonian name, Takelberg or Tagaper, originates from the von Stackelbergs(1694- 1796). The castle ensemble that has been preserved until today dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. After the fire 1904, Squire Hugo von Stryck had built that is one on the biggest and most impressive art nouveau- style castles in Estonia. The archidect of the castle was Otto Wildau. In architecture, the manor house is associated more with the national romanticism of Finland than Baltic building traditions. The building that was completed in 1907- 1912 was designed with a high tower, numerous gables, erkers, balconies and sturdy chimneys, which give it the look of the medieval stronghold. There is no symmetry in the external architecture of the building. The materials used are robustly broken granite with rough plaster and scaly salte. The art nouveau approach can also be seen inside the buildungs. Several rooms are arched; the slightly overdone forms create the impression of the mystical troll world. Foyers and the hunting hall are decorated with imposing fireplaces and the former baron's study also has a firepalce, which now creates a nice mood for people staying overnight. The numerous annexes have also bee preserved: wooden houses for servants and labourers, animal barns, water - mill.


In 1922, the manor was given in the Health Care Administration, who used is as a sanatorium. The building was used for health care until 2000, when it was turned into a hotel.
