Nereta Manor, Manor house in Nereta Parish, Latvia
The manor house stands as a primary example of Baltic feudal architecture with its rectangular layout and regional construction methods from the 16th century.
Established in 1501, the manor belonged to Wilhelm of Eferna, a former Commander of the Livonian Order, who maintained it as a fortified residence.
The manor includes spaces that hosted a Latin school established in 1596 for educating children of the estate's workers under Duke Gotthard Kettler's direction.
The preserved sections of the manor remain open to visitors, with guided tours explaining the architectural elements and historical significance of each room.
During World War I, German forces constructed a narrow-gauge railway near the manor to connect Nereta with Jēkabpils and Lithuanian settlements.
