History and setting
The estate was founded in the early twentieth century by Count Juozapas Tiškevičius and his wife Jadvyga. The palace, with Louis XVI interiors, was designed by the Polish architect Józef Huss, and the park by the French landscape architect Édouard François André. The estate belonged to the Tiškevičius family until the Second World War and was handed to the park directorate in 1995. Restoration has covered most of the buildings.
