Jurbarko dvaro parkas

The Jurbarkas manor is located in the heart of Jurbarkas city, on its western edge. Here, in a beautiful park on the left bank of the Mituva River, Prince Vasilchikov built stylish mansions, expanded the park, and enclosed it with a red brick wall. Near the main manor, two additional buildings, known as wings, were constructed. The southern wing housed the manor's servants and may have previously served as the manor's office. The northern wing was elegantly furnished and reserved for the prince's family members or guests. Close to the northern wing, on the northeast side, a small but rather ornate masonry church was built.


The former manor park was established in the mid-19th century. The park stretches along a narrow strip on the left bank of the Mituva River and is easily accessible via a footbridge near the festival stage. The park covers approximately 9 hectares and features a mixed layout. The central part includes a parterre surrounded by a loop of access avenues running from east to west. The park's plantings consist of native maples, lindens, and birches, with some oaks and hornbeams. The avenues are lined with European larches and black pines. The main avenue connects the Classicist-style mansion with the former ornate decorative gates. Through these gates, one would enter the town street. The second set of gates is located in the northeast section. The park is bordered by Jurbarkas city to the north and east, residential areas to the south, and a hilly terrain with the Mituva River and its valley to the west.
