Alatskivi Castle hires out four halls for seminars, training days, conferences and weddings, with theatre seating for 50 to 200 people. The Gothic Revival castle stands in Alatskivi, in Tartu County, Estonia, and has a restaurant and four guest suites on site.
Seminars and company events
The halls are rented by the hour for seminars, training and conferences. The Gallery Hall on the first floor seats 120 in theatre layout, and the Main Hall, also on the first floor, seats 100. The Tubina Chamber Hall on the second floor seats 50 and suits a board meeting or a workshop. The exhibition hall in the former carriage horse stable is the largest room, with 200 seats. Wi-Fi covers all the halls, and a screen, a projector, a flipchart and sound equipment can be rented when needed. Seminar and training participants receive a visit to the castle, and a guide can be booked for the group. Coffee breaks and meals come from the castle restaurant. Custom quotes are available for additional services.
Weddings and receptions
Couples can rent the Gallery Hall, the Main Hall or both. The Gallery Hall measures 99 square meters and the Main Hall 91 square meters. Each takes up to 100 guests seated at tables, depending on the layout. The Romantic Salon, at 28 square meters, is available with the Main Hall for getting ready, for a break or for a cold buffet. The stable exhibition hall can be used for a party on request. The castle also arranges flowers suited to the building, transport to accommodation and photography.
Rooms and capacities
Theatre-style capacities are 120 in the Gallery Hall, 100 in the Main Hall, 50 in the Tubina Chamber Hall and 200 in the stable exhibition hall. For seated wedding dinners the castle states up to 100 guests in the Gallery Hall or the Main Hall. The site gives no banquet figure for the stable exhibition hall, so ask for the layout that fits your group.
Accommodation
Four suites on the second floor sleep eight guests in total, without extra beds. For larger events, the castle works with accommodation providers nearby, although the official site names none.
Catering
The Alatskivi Castle restaurant, on the ground floor, provides coffee breaks, meals and wedding catering. Sample banquet and wedding menus are published in the restaurant and suites section of the website.
History and setting
The castle dates from around 1880. It is a Gothic Revival building protected as an architectural monument. The visitor center on the ground floor tells the story of the castle, of the manor and of its restoration. The basement holds a photo exhibition on the old manors of Tartu County, wax figures of manor servants and craft workshops, and the second floor houses the Eduard Tubin museum. Activities are also offered in the castle park.
