Vilkėnas Manor, Neoclassical manor house in Švėkšna, Lithuania
The two-story Vilkėnas Manor combines neoclassical elements with decorative plasterwork across its many rooms and symmetrical exterior design.
The Broël-Plater family owned the estate from 1820, when Count Jerzy divided the Švėkšna Estate among his four sons, establishing Vilkėnas as independent.
The manor reflects the German and Polish influences in Lithuania Minor through its architecture and the languages spoken by nobility during its active period.
The estate includes both the main building and a surrounding 13-hectare park containing 70 different species of trees and shrubs for visitors to explore.
Following nationalization in 1940, the manor served as a children's home before being returned to Countess Felicija Laimė Broël-Plater in 1993.
