History [ edit ]

Liljendal was originally the name of a seat farm (sateri) in the village of Savtrask. Its name may have been derived from that of an old Cistercian monastery in Lower Saxony , Lilienthal . At the time, it was a part of the Perna (Pernaja) parish. The name got its current meaning when the seat farm and nine villages near it became their own chapel community in 1791. [5] Liljendal became a separate parish in 1914. [6]
