The history of Kiiala Manor dates back to medieval times, and the owners are known since the middle of the 15th century. The present main building was built in 1769 originally in the Rococo style, but has been remodeled in the Empire style in the beginning of the 19th century. The current appearance is from the 1880s when it was remodeled in the villa-style of the decade. A tower was added during the remodeling, however, it was removed in 1936.
