History of Creation
The history of the estate dates back to the 18th century when Vidzy was owned by noble families. The complex was built as a country residence, surrounded by a picturesque park with rare tree species and decorative ponds. Over different periods, the estate changed owners, which influenced its appearance and interior decor. At the beginning of the 20th century, the complex fell into decline, but its historical value was recognized, and today it is included in the list of cultural heritage sites.
Architecture of the Complex
The Vidzov Estate and Park Complex features a harmonious blend of Classicism and Neo-Gothic styles. The main building of the estate is designed in a palace-estate architectural style with characteristic elements such as columns, stucco moldings, and arched windows. Surrounding the mansion is a park where you can see remnants of past centuries' landscape design—winding alleys, artificial ponds, and ancient trees. The complex also includes utility buildings that have preserved their authenticity and convey the atmosphere of the past.
