The estate is named for the von Ungern family, who owned it prior to the middle of the 17th century. The current wooden manor was built in 1731–1732 in Baroque style for the owner, Lieutenant General Balthasar Freiherr von Campenhausen. The von Campenhausen family owned the estate from 1728 to 1939.
