Abromiškėse mõis, Manor house in Abromiškės, Lithuania.
Abromiškėse mõis is a manor house standing near Lake Oris with traditional Lithuanian architectural elements and detailed facades throughout. The building displays ornate structural components that reflect regional building practices from its era.
The estate began in 1571 when Abraham Poniatowski built the first manor structures and later expanded through French ownership by the de Raës family around 1748. The property underwent various phases of change as it passed between different owners over the centuries.
During the first half of the 19th century, the manor became a center for cultural events, hosting theatrical performances and literary evenings in its halls.
The manor has been undergoing renovation work since 2012 with plans for guest accommodations and event halls. Visitors should check locally about current conditions and accessibility before planning a visit.
Artist Mykolas Žilinskas purchased the property in 1933 and later donated it to the Writers' Union following Lithuania's independence in 1990. This connection to the art world and literary circles shaped the estate during the modern era.
