Rietavas Manor, Neoclassical manor house in Rietavas, Lithuania.

The grounds of Rietavas Manor contain numerous structures including a water tower, guard house, two gates, and the Ogiński Family Chapel.

The manor belonged to the influential Ogiński family from 1812 to 1909, marking a period of substantial development and modernization in the region.

The manor housed a music school and symphony orchestra under Bogdan Ogiński's leadership, contributing to Lithuania's musical education in the 19th century.

While the main building's foundations remain visible, visitors can explore several preserved structures including the musicians' dormitory and surrounding park.

The manor complex introduced the first telephone line in Lithuania in 1882 and established the country's first power station for electricity in 1892.
