Geocache Description:


Kurtna küla is located in Alutaguse Parish, Ida-Viru County, and has a long history — the village was first mentioned in 1241 in the Danish Census Book. Kurtna is best known for its historic manor, which was originally connected to the Vasknarva Order Castle in the 15th century. The current manor house, built in 1880, along with the old steward's house and park, are still standing and worth a visit.

The cache is hidden near the Kurtna library and community house. Nearby you can also see the old manor buildings and some interesting colorful rocks.

Kurtna küla asub Ida-Viru maakonnas, Alutaguse vallas, ning sellel on pikk ajalugu — küla on esmakordselt mainitud juba 1241. aastal Taani hindamisraamatus. Kurtna on tuntud eelkõige oma ajaloolise mõisa poolest, mis oli 15. sajandil seotud Vasknarva ordulinnusega. Praegune mõisahoone on ehitatud 1880. aastal ning koos vana valitsejamaja ja mõisapargiga on need tänaseni säilinud ja külastamist väärt.

Aare on peidetud Kurtna raamatukogu ja seltsimaja juurde. Läheduses asub ka Kurtna mõis ning värvilised kivid.
