Gulbenes Baltā pils, Neoclassical palace in Gulbene, Latvia
Gulbenes Baltā pils is a neoclassical mansion in Gulbene with four stories and a tower at its center. The complex includes side structures, sculptural elements, and decorative details inspired by Roman villa design.
The mansion was built in 1763 and received a major expansion in 1859. A fire damaged it in 1904, and during World War II it suffered partial destruction in 1944.
The building reflects how wealthy German families chose to live and build in this region during the 1700s. You can observe their preference for European architectural styles adapted to a Baltic setting.
The estate sits at Brīvības Street 14 in Gulbene and welcomes visitors throughout the year. The grounds can be explored freely without time restrictions.
The complex featured an orangery where exotic plants like palms and citrus trees were grown in Latvia's cold climate. This greenhouse demonstrated the owner's wealth and horticultural ambitions.
