Jaunauce manor palace is a national monument of Classical architecture, built for count Medem. Restauration work has been carried out in the oval hall with the only authentic dome painting of Classicism style in Latvia, the gallery, the dining room and the study. The largest collection of Empire style stoves (7 stoves) from the beginning of the 19th century has also been restored. In the 19th century, the palace housed the most impressive collection of artworks in Courland Governorate. Nowadays, this collection can be seen using digital technology in the augmented reality exhibition “Vārti” – when scanning markers, visitors can see paintings, busts and historical dance in 3D. There is an exposition of nobility clothing in the palace, where each costume features a true story from the life of baron Ropp’s family in Jaunauce manor. Exposition “The School Desk” consists of various desks from the time the building housed Jaunauce school, and there is still an authentic physics and chemistry lab from the Soviet times. In baron’s wine cellar visitors can taste Jaunauce manor wine.

Vadakste manor house has been the property of baron Bistram’s family since the 16th century. The first manor house (later servants’ house) was built in the late 18th century.

The manor house is surrounded by a park created in the 18th and 19th centuries and featuring rare tree species.
