Well for me, even if wikipedia may not be accurate, lack accountability or have all the bells and whistles of a commercial reference work, its like a collective memory of humanity. It may not be always accurate, because over time generations forget or deform facts (sometimes deliberately) , but its better than nothing.
Mõdriku is a village in Vinni Parish in Lääne-Viru County, northeastern Estonia. It is the location of Mõdriku Manor, a house that was first mentioned in 1470, and belonged to several Baltic-German families, including the family of the Russian general and explorer Alexander von Kaulbars. His ancestor R.A. von Kaulbars, reputedly a great patriot, put up the column commemorating the French invasion of Russia in 1812 that is still visible in the manor park. The building dates partly from the 17th century, with substantial alterations in the 1780s and 1890s. During the 20th century, it was used by various schools.
