Paju is a village in Tõlliste Parish, Valga County in southern Estonia. It's located about 6 km northeast of the town of Valga. Paju has a population of 80 (as of 2011) and an area of 9.341 km². Paju Manor ((ドイツ語:Luhde-Großhof)) was established in 1748 by detaching it from the Lugaži Manor (''Luhde'', nowadays in Latvia). From the 1850s to the dispossession in 1919 it belonged to the Stryks. The late-classicist two-storey main building was competed around 1860. Since 1960, a nursing home is operating in the manor. Paju is best known for Battle of Paju, one of the heaviest battles of the Estonian War of Independence. It took place on 31 January 1919 around the manor. The result was Estonian victory over the Soviets. The Tartu road (part of E264) passes through Paju. Also the Tartu–Valga railway is bordering Paju on its southeastern side. ==Battle of Paju memorial== File:Battle of Paju 1.jpg| File:Battle of Paju 2.jpg| File:Battle of Paju 3.jpg| 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paju, Valga County」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
