Jurbarkas Manor and Park

Two manor wings (mid-19th-century side palaces, also called outbuildings), the Jurbarkas Orthodox Church of the Transfiguration (1865), the farmhands' quarters (mid-19th century) and the park have survived. The southern wing houses the Jurbarkas Tourism and Business Information Centre, and the northern wing the Jurbarkas Regional Museum. The church now serves as the Jurbarkas exhibition and concert hall. In 2015 the columns of the manor's main palace were rebuilt. In the 16th–18th centuries Jurbarkas belonged to the wives of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania (it was held by Bona Sforza, Anna Habsburg, Cecilia Renata and Ludwika Maria). At the beginning of the 18th century Augustus II entrusted Jurbarkas to the Radziwiłłs, until in 1795 Catherine II handed it over to Platon Zubov, and in 1846 Nicholas I granted Jurbarkas to the princes Vasilchikov. They built the manor estate and stayed here until 1918, when the manor was parcelled out.
