Saka, Estonia

Saka is a village in Toila Parish, Ida-Viru County in northeastern Estonia.

[1] Before the 2017 Administrative Reform, the village belonged to Kohtla Parish.

In 1626, Saka (German: Sackhof) was given as an estate by Swedish King Gustavus Adolphus to the alderman of Narva Jürgen Leslie of Aberdeen, whose origins were Scottish but who had probably entered Swedish service during the time of the Thirty Years' War.

The estate later passed into the Baltic German von Löwis of Menar family, and the current building was erected during the ownership of Oscar von Löwis of Menar, from 1862 to 1864.

It was built in an accomplished Italian renaissance style, unusual for Estonian manor houses.
