Särevere Serrefer
Särevere was founded in the early 1600s. Hermann von Nierodt bought it in 1627, and it later belonged for over a century to the Uexküll-Güldenbands. From 1811 to 1919 it was owned by the Schillings. The two-story wooden house with a mansard roof has a Neo-Baroque front door and fretwork trim along its eaves and windows. A glass veranda with a winter garden was added in 1860.
