Steam & Epic Games | DailyManor Lords is getting a MASSIVE patch reworking villager behavior, logistics, construction, and battles will finally make sense. Bug fixes for cart workers, shepherds, and stuck units, plus AI and animation upgrades. Full changelog on Steam.
VaidaLast weekend, we visited another manor house that is little known to the public. It seems to be slowly coming back to life. The abandoned apartments are being renovated, and the windows are being replaced. There are no other houses nearby, and a river runs close by. Stepping out onto the terrace, I thought it would be absolutely wonderful to live here—drinking coffee on this terrace in the mornings, enjoying the silence, and gazing at the starry sky at night. By the way, one of the last units sold here went for just 600 euros.

⚙️ Manor Lords test build received a major tech update, the 13th internal build since the last beta. The patch focuses on performance, bug fixes, cosmetics and several system-level improvements.
The main visual change is a refreshed GUI style (first stage; main HUD to follow). Players should see better performance, improved unit pathing, collisions and troop behaviour; devs are tuning unit physics to avoid «too perfect» or «too chaotic»...

KatiVoltveti Manor (Tihemetsa Manor) – short history
Voltveti Manor, located in present-day Tihemetsa in Pärnu County, was first mentioned in the 16th century (1563 according to some sources). The estate belonged to several Baltic German noble families, most notably the von Stryk family, who owned it from the late 18th century until the Estonian land reform of 1919. The current late-Classical manor house was built around 1830 and was considered one of the most impressive manor residences in Pärnumaa.
After Estonia's independence, the manor was nationalized. In 1925 it became home to the Voltveti Forestry School, and later various vocational education institutions. To accommodate its educational functions, the original manor house was altered with a third floor and an additional wing.
Why is it in such poor condition?
Unlike many restored Estonian manors that found profitable new uses (hotels, museums, conference centers), Voltveti spent most of the 20th century as a practical institutional building. The additions made for school use compromised its architectural appearance, and maintenance focused on functionality rather than historical preservation.
Its condition is also part of a broader Estonian story. After the 1919 land reform, many manors lost their original owners and economic base. During the Soviet era, manor houses were generally valued only for practical use, while those without sufficient funding or a strong new purpose gradually deteriorated.
So Voltveti is not a complete ruin, but it has lost much of the elegance that made it famous in the 19th century. The building survives, yet decades of institutional use, alterations, and limited restoration have left it looking far less grand than originally intended.
One thing that has survived remarkably well is the manor park, which contains around 150 species of trees, including several rare species.

Ulrich Plate« Le gorille » de #Manor est un roman très étrange, à la fois pour son titre (surnom qu’on donne, il paraît, aux agents du Shin Bet, le service de renseignement intérieur israélien) et pour la question dont il tente la réponse littéraire : comment échapper à sa propre histoire ? En écrivant à son père, défunt, mdr, et en français, langue qu’il n’aurait pas compris même de son vivant – une lettre donc « cacheté avec un double sceau », seul moyen de lui parler ouvertement sans que sa présence « m’ôte, une fois encore, tout courage ». Il entre dans ma collection de cosmopolites dépaysé·e·s comme les deux Osloïtes anglophones du pouet d’il y a deux semaines. 3/4

It looks like a huge pond is going to be built on the grounds of the abandoned manor. I wonder if this is a newly constructed pond or if they’re trying to restore what used to be here.
