A very impressive ensemble that is in terrible shape. The estate dates back to the 18th and 19th century, with the castle being built in the early 19th century. Half a century later it was rebuilt in the Neo-Gothic style with symmetrical towers and bricks in the cornices. The estate belonged to the Manteufel-Stzege dynasty. The vestibule, stairwell and second floor hall still have ornamental ceiling paintings, but visitors are not allowed to enter the building, so they cannot be seen. Valuable interior design elements include a fireplace from the early 19th century that is decorated with marble elements. After the expropriation of the castle in 1920 and until 1951, the building housed a forestry school and then an agricultural crafts school. Opposite the castle was the stable of the state that was built in the style of Classicism with a pediment and mighty columns. Built in the early 19th century, the stable is no longer used and can only be viewed from the outside. A very much overgrown park surrounds the complex, and the hillock is the grave of one of the baron’s dogs.

The Baisogalo Estate is one of the oldest ones in Lithuania and is known as a royal castle because it once belonged to the local lord. The ornate late-Classicism buildings were built in the mid-19th century and have survived. The 12 ha landscape park dates back to the early part of the 19th century, with an alley of chestnut trees leading to the estate from the local village. The central alley that starts at the gate weaves through two curvy bodies of water with a bridge and statues of lions. Various trees behind the estate are alongside curvy and narrow pathways. On both sides of the alleys are bodies of water, and deep in the park is a pond with an island. |

One of the most important military and political elements of the Livonian Order, the Bauska Castle was built between 1443 and 1456 at the place where the Mūsa and Mēmele rivers flow together. The castle had five towers and walls that were up to three metres thick. Between 1580 and 1596, the forecastle was replaced with a residence for the duke of Courland, and its walls were finished with the sgrafito technique. The castle suffered damage during wars in the 16th and 17th century, but it was always restored until 1706, when the Russian military blew it up during the Great Northern War. Today the castle houses a museum, with a viewing platform in its south-eastern tower. |

The Krimulda Estate was first recorded in documents in the 15th century. The Krimulda Castle that can be seen now is on the right bank of the ancient Gauja River valley opposite the aerial tram. There are outstanding views of the ancient river valley from the castle and the opposite shore. The Krimulda Castle is a Neo-Classical structure which was built by a local nobleman in the 19th century. In the 1920s, the castle was expropriated and turned over to the Latvian Red Cross, which installed a children's sanatorium there. Today the Krimulda rehabilitation hospital is in the building, and among other structures, the ones that have survived include the stables, threshing barn, servants' quarters, governor's quarters, and the so-called Swiss house. Educational tours are available, and overnight stays are possible at the estate. |

This convent-type castle was built in the mid-13th century by the bishopric of Piltene. Annexes were added in the 16th and 19th centuries to create a typical internal courtyard. The Neo-Gothic forms of the castle’s façade date back to the 1830s. From the 16th century to the 1920, the castle was owned by the noble Behr family. After it was burned down during the 1905 Revolution, the castle was rebuilt in two years’ time. The castle is known for ghost stories, tales of elf weddings, and stains of blood in the Red Room that are supposedly the result of a murder. A fireplace was built to hide the stains, but they reappeared. Since the privatisation of the castle, the interior has been restored with halls and cellars that are decorated with elements that are typical to the castle. Its rooms and viewing tower are open to the public. In the park, visitors will find the Alley of Love and the elf oak tree. |
