Until 1724, the Cecina semi-estate belonged to the Hilsen dynasty. When daughter Jadviga married Jans Šadurskis, the estate was recorded as the Malnava Estate in 1774. Ownership of the estate changed hands several times. The mansion is built in the style of Classicism with Baroque elements. The granary is on one side of the yard, while the mansion is on the other side. During agrarian reforms in the 1920s, the estate was one of the largest ones in Latvia, covering 12,400 ha. The mansion was damaged during World War Ii, and the original interior design was lost during reconstruction. Among other buildings, the granary, built in the style of Classicism during the first half of the 19th century, has been preserved, as have several other buildings. The park of the estate has exotic bushes and trees, as well as two cement bunkers, one of which was briefly visited by Adolf Hitler. The estate also has a vodka distillation facility where you will learn all about the process from antiquity to the present day. |

This is an open territory which is 3.5 km long and 2 km wide. It is located on the left bank of the Lielupe River between the village of Pavasari and the Odiņi homestead. The polder was established during the Soviet era to obtain farmland, and back then it was used very intensively. Today, it is slowly becoming overgrown, and despite this, this is one of the most important locations in Europe for corn-crakes. A gravel road crosses the polder from the North to the South, and this is an excellent place to hear the songs of the corn-crake. |
