Vāldamõ – a residential building that is yellow and has natural roofing materials. It was built as a new farm at the beginning of the last century. Virgo is the next homestead to the North from Vāldamõ, and it was established as a new farm in the 1920s. The house (1930) features interesting wood carvings. Next to the North is Fīlmaņi, which has a building that appears antique, but was built in the early 20th century as a single roof. Silkalni is the homestead that we find if we turn to the right toward Pitrags at the crossroads. The yellow building was built around 1906 as a single room. Norpiedagi is to the South from Silkalni – a brown and larger house than the previous one. The home was built around 1906 as a one-room granary by the active Liv public activist and boat builder Diriķis Volganskis (1884-1968). His son, Edgars Valgamā, who was also a Liv cultural activist and worked as a pastor in Finland, was born here. Anduļi can be found at the aforementioned crossroads. This is one of the largest old farms in the village, and it is owned by the village elder. The history of the homestead was first recorded in 1680, when it was called Kūkiņi. The homestead includes a residential building (c. 1909), a threshing barn (1905), a granary (mid-19th century), and a smokehouse made of a boat that was cut in two. Under the part of the threshing barn which is on the back of the dune, there is the medieval, so-called Plague cemetery. Žoki is a homestead that is on the other side of the road from Anduļi. The building that is there now was built on the foundation of an older one. In the mid-19th century, Žoki was home to the first reading school for Liv children from the seashore villages of the Dundaga region. Liv Nika Polmanis (1823-1903) worked there as a teacher. Next to the North of Žoki is the Tilmači homestead, with several buildings that were built in the late 19th and early 20th century – a brown residential building, a stable and part of a granary. When the residential building was restored, the owner found a board reading "1825. Kurlyandskaya gubernya." The seven historical homesteads and buildings were at one time considered for listing on the UNESCO list of world heritage. |
