Veisiejai Regional Park, Regional park in Lazdijai District Municipality, Lithuania
Veisiejai Regional Park is a nature area in Lithuania that encompasses Lake Veisiejis and varied landscapes with native plants and animals. The park covers 122 square kilometers with different habitats and natural features throughout its territory.
The park's visitor center is located in the right wing of an 18th-century manor house with late baroque architectural elements. This structure reflects the region's architectural heritage and now serves visitors as an information point.
The exhibition 'Life in the Waters' opened in 2015 with interactive displays featuring voiced fairy tales and educational puzzles about the local environment. Visitors engage directly with displays that explain how water shapes life in this region.
Visitors can explore the area through hiking trails, cycling routes, horse paths, and kayaking on the water. These different ways to move through the park allow people to experience it according to their interests and abilities.
The manor's historic cellar system preserves its original vaulted architecture and now functions as exhibition space for rotating art displays. These underground rooms offer a surprising contrast to the natural landscape above and show how old structures serve new purposes.
