Lamiņi Manor
Lamiņi Manor (Latvian: Lamiņu muižas pils) is a manor house in Lamiņi, Pūre Parish, Tukums Municipality in the historical region of Courland, in western Latvia.
History
Lamiņi Manor was built between 1855 and 1856. In the mid-19th century manor was acquired by Ferman, a merchant from Riga, and new manor master house was built. It currently houses the Dzirciems special boarding school.
Manor park
At the same time when the construction of the new manor master house was going on, Ferman ordered creation of a new manor park with decoratively trimmed trees intertwined with pathways, flower beds, and decorative ponds. In 1912 Lamiņi Manor park was characterized as a rare example of Old French and Rococo style park in the Baltics.
