Murder Mystery — Laitse Castle 1927

Murder Mystery — Laitse Castle 1927

Laitse, some tens of kilometres southwest of Tallinn, is mentioned already in Henry’s Chronicle of Livonia. In April 1883, Natalie von Uexküll bought the estate for her son Woldemar.

Woldemar von Uexküll built Laitse’s imposing neo-Gothic manor house around 1890. In the 1919 land reform, large estates were nationalised. Part of the manor centre nevertheless remained with the Uexkülls. The estate is managed, as commissioner, by Heinrich von Uexküll, son of Woldemar von Uexküll. Heinrich is planning to sell the manor.

Woldemar von Uexküll has arrived from Switzerland. He came home to realise the last remaining assets here. After all, a son cannot be trusted in everything!

Heinrich arranges a festive dinner in his father’s honour. Among the guests are dashing officers, wealthy businessmen, venerable clergymen, beautiful ladies… Are all the proud lords and ladies really who they claim to be? Might one of the honourable guests be harbouring evil thoughts?

You guessed right! This is, of course, a murder mystery — perfect for various events and party evenings. It is an experience that lets you travel to another time and place, a world of fantasy where you can enjoy emotions and adventures that everyday life does not offer.
