Volfšmita muižiņa, Manor house in Kurzeme District, Latvia

The wooden manor complex includes a main residential building, orangery, servants' quarters, and laundry house in classical architectural style at Kandavas Street.

Built before 1824 on the former Sassenhof estate lands, the manor later belonged to alcohol producer Albert Wolfschmidt who manufactured Riga Black Balsam.

The manor buildings now form part of the University of Latvia Botanical Garden, serving as lecture halls, laboratories, and storage facilities.

During the early 20th century, the property operated as a private nervous clinic before transforming into a horticultural center under K. Erdman.
