Saue Friedrichshof
Saue was split off from Sausti manor in the 1620s as Little Sausti. In the late 1700s Major Friedrich Hermann von Fersen built a two-story Baroque stone house, probably to a design by the provincial architect Johann Schultz, and in 1786 renamed the estate Friedrichshof. The building left Fersen in debt, and the estate was sold to Count Karl Friedrich von Rehbinder.
