The first church was here in the early 18th century, followed by the second and third one (1847-1848), and then the one that is there now. The church was damaged during World War I and then during the Soviet era, when wool was stored there between 1969 and 1993. In the 1990s, the building was in terrible shape, but it is gradually recovering its appearance. Between 1826 and 1856, the sexton and organist at the church was the Latvian poet and translator Ansis Līventāls (1803-1878). His grave and monument are alongside the church. At the same place are the graves of German and Russian soldiers who died during World War I, as well as the grave monument of the pastor and writer Jacob Florentin Lundberg (1782-1858).

Saimniecība atrodas Ziemeļvidzemes biosfēras rezervātā, netālu no Burtnieku ezera. Tajā audzē kazas un gatavo kazas sieru.

Sieri

Tiek piedāvāts baltais, svaigais kazas siers bez piedevām. Tāpat pieejama kazu piena karamele - smēriņš.

Kā top siers

Siers top ilgi un pacietīgi visa gada garumā no pašu saimniecības kazu piena. Tā ir pilna cikla saimniekošana: saimnieki stāda, ravē un novāc ražu, ēd paši un dod ēst kazām. Kazu dziļās kūts uzkrājumi katru rudeni tiek vesti uz lauka, lai katru nākamo gadu “atdzimtu” ēdamajos dārzājos.

Apmeklētājiem

Tā kā kazu pienam ir sezonāls raksturs, piedāvājumā divu veidu apmeklējumi:

  • piena sezonā: kazu masāža ačgārnā virzienā, stāsti par un ap kazām, to piena produktiem, kazu piena produktu degustācija;
  • īpašais piedāvājums - meistarklase - iespēja pašiem sasiet savu personalizēto sieru, ko pēc sūkalu nospiešanas iespējams saņemt ar aukstumskapju pakomātu starpniecību;
  • piena "nesezonā": pārgājieni ar kazām, stāsti par un ap kazām, kopēja tējas vārīšana uz ugunskura - tēju izdzer apmeklētājs, biezumus apēd kaza vai āzis.
Kur iegādāties sierus

Saimniecībā uz vietas, Slow Food Straupe tirdziņos, Vidzemes lielākajos gadatirgos.

The Dviete ancient river valley is a unique territory of environmental, cultural and historical importance between Kaldabruņas, Bebrene and Dviete. The small Dviete River flows through the ancient river valley, through Lake Skuķi and Lake Dviete, and through the wetland meadows that are alongside the valley. During flooding season, these wetlands store up water from the Daugava River, rapidly absorbing masses of floodwater and then slowly returning the water to the river. The views during wet springs are incomparable to anything else that can be seen in Latvia. The specifics of the shifting water level in the ancient river valley are the reason why this is an important place for plants and birds during migration and nesting season. The Dviete Wetlands Nature Park has been set up to protect the territory. It is interesting that higher areas which do not disappear underwater during the floods are known as islands. Archaeologists who have studied the Dviete ancient river valley have found 15 possible settlements of the ancients (from the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age). They found a wealth of ancient objects of various kinds. There is reason to believe that this is one of the oldest and most important settlements in what is now southern Latvia.
