Castle locates in Purtse village - one oldest settlements in Eastern Estonia.
Building of stronghold began in during the Dutch time in 1533 by Jakob van Taube.

The building has had many functions during its existence. It has been the home of a feudal family, offered protection in times of war and in later times it has served as a cold cellar, milk chamber, grain storage, a prison and a workers' residence.

Purtse castle is built in gothic style with renaissance elements. Walls are 6 metres tall.

Concert-scene in park of Toila, Estonia

Toila sea resort is also a place of concerts and festivals. Becouse of this there is nice concet-scene created in the picturesque park of Toila. There are sitting places in open air. In summer time there are different concerts organised. One local traditional party is a "Miner's day" when thousands of people come here and have fun.
