*******************************************
M=FC=FCriku (Marienhof) manor was situated at the distance of 1 kilometer
from V=E4ike-Maarja, on the road to Simuna. It was founded in the
19th century by a merchant from Tallinn, called P. J. Hoffmann.
He bought a tenant farm and opened a shop.
There was no competition and he became rich in no time at all.
Proper manor houses were built, including a long wooden main building
that has been preserved up to our time, also a small building for
officials
that traverses the main building.
In a building situated behind, the former V=E4ike-Maarja school for
girls was
opened in 1902.
In the building for officials there was the first hospital in V=E4ike-
Maarja with
four beds at the end of the 19th century and one of the offspring of
the
Hoffmanns was a doctor.
The manor itself was sold already in 1891 to an Estonian called Jaan
Allik
who had become wealthy running a tavern.
