EST: Pivarootsi küla ristijateks ja asutajateks on olnud ilmselt liivlased: sõna “piva” tähendab liivi keeles “püha”.

Mõisa ühekorruseline varaklassitsistlik puidust mõisa peahoone püstitati arvatavasti 18.-19. sajandi vahetusel. Peahoone esist pikka ja kitsast tänavalaadset esiväljakut ääristasid neljatahuliste sammastega ait ja tall-tõllakuur. Kõrvalhoonetest on ait ja tall-tõllakuur ja mõned veel säilinud, mitmed hooned on hävinud või varemeis. Mõisas tegutseb külalistemaja.

ENG: The founders of this tiny coastal village have probably come from Livonia: the word ‘piva’ means ‘holy’ in Livonian.

The single-storey timber main building of the manor, in early classicist style, is thought to have been constructed at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. The long, narrow square at the front of the building was edged by a barn, stable and carriage house decorated with square columns. The main building was reclad during the Soviet era. Many of the other buildings on the main remain standing today, although some were destroyed or are in ruins. Manor house is a holiday house.
