Historic sites

One of Lithuania’s cultural heritage sites is Pavirvytė manor. The history of the manor, located near the Svirkančiai outcrop, on the right bank of the River Virvytė, dates back to the beginning of the 19th century. Until 1840, Pavirvytė manor belonged to Ilinčius. A mobile Polish reading room was set up in the manor, which was available to the owners of surrounding manors and intellectuals from Viekšniai. The famous Lithuanian writers Povilas Višinskis and Marija Lastauskienė (Lazdynų Pelėda), who paid a lot of attention to Balts culture, were visitors of the former library here.
