Before the administrative reform in 2017, the village was in Kernu Parish.
Kernu estate was established in 1637. The current building owes its stately neoclassical appearance to a thorough renovation executed 1810–1813, possibly by the designs of renowned Helsinki architect Carl Ludvig Engel. The front façade is dominated by a richly decorated portico, while the side facing the park displays a 4-column half rotunda, unique in Estonian architecture.[2][3]
