The Rapla region is the most recent of Estonia's agricultural regions. It is a center of large farms, developed during the Soviet era into collective farms (the largest is Kaerepere). Mentioned for the first time in 1241, but never having had any real status as a town, Rapla was built around its church with two towers (there are only two in Estonia), dedicated to Mary Magdalene. The area is ideal for forest walks, with its marshes and ruined bastions, including the 10th-century Loone bastion and the 11th-century Keava bastion, the best-preserved of which is the13th-century Barbola bastion.
