Užutrakis Manor House
The Manor Estate, which survived to the present day, was founded by Jozef Tyszkiewicz (1868-1917), and his wife, Polish duchess Hedwig Swiatopelk-Czetwertynska. The palace was built, and the park was created between 1896 and 1902. French landscape architect Édouard André developed an 80-hectare mixed style park in his characteristic style. In front of the palace, he designed parterres of regular shape with trimmed lime alleys, ornamental flower gardens, marble vases and sculptures. The architect skillfully exploited the contrasting landscape of the peninsula, highlighting its hills with compositions of artificial rocks, and strengthening the glow of the surrounding lakes with a complex system of ponds. More than 20 ponds were artificially dug, which interlinked with each other and the lakes, thus creating a unique park full of water reflections, where the boundaries between the land and water would disappear.
