Atla Manor was first mentioned as Groß-Attel in 1422[2] when it belonged to Hannes van Treyden. 16th–17th century the manor belonged to the Dücker family. After the Great Northern War it was owned by the Maydells and the Helffreichs. From 1873 to its dispossession in 1919 the Barlöwens lived there.[3] Nowadays a private pottery is located in the manor.
