Skriveri Manor, Manor house in Skrīveri Parish, Latvia

The manor building stands as a testament to 19th-century Baltic German architectural traditions, featuring elements characteristic of rural estates in the region.

The construction of Skriveri Manor, completed in 1887, marked the establishment of an important administrative center that was later destroyed during World War I.

The estate supported agricultural development in the region, with its grounds housing a notable tree nursery and arboretum established by dendrologist Maximilian von Sivers.

Reaching Skriveri Manor's location requires transportation to Skrīveri village, accessible via the Riga-Daugavpils railway line or regional roadways.

The Swedish origins of Skrīveri's name derive from 'skreivet', meaning 'to write', connecting to the 1634 Swedish notary Johann Niemier's ownership of the property.
