Dūkštas Manor, Classical manor house in Dūkšteliai village, Lithuania.
Dūkštas Manor is a classical estate in Dūkšteliai village with a main palace building, twin barn structures, wheeled stables, and a traditional wooden worker's house spread across the grounds. The buildings display typical features of a 19th-century agricultural estate.
The estate first appears in records from 1567 when it belonged to Zofija Devaltauskienė before passing through marriage to Vaitiekus Stabrovskis. This transfer marks the beginning of the property's documented history.
The manor served as home to Professor Jonas Rustemas from Vilnius University during the 1800s, and he was buried in the estate cemetery. This connection to academic life shaped the property as a place of learning.
The grounds are open to visitors year-round, and you can walk the exterior areas freely. If you want to see inside the buildings, call ahead to arrange a guided tour.
The manor sits between two lakes, Parsvėtaitis and Persvėtas, which frame the property naturally. From the western approach to the estate, you can see the Old Dūkštas mound, an ancient earthwork that marks the landscape.
