Kiyakovo Manor is a place for those who appreciate silence and want to touch history.
On the banks of the Servech River, in the Dokshitsy district of the Vitebsk region, there was once a prosperous estate founded by the Kiyakovsky family at the end of the 19th century. The estate, which included a large house, outbuildings and a park, is now just ruins. During the Second World War, the main house, consisting of 14 rooms, was destroyed.
However, a chapel-tomb, built in 1907, has been preserved on the territory, where representatives of the Kiyakovsky family rest. Seven representatives of this family are buried here.
Walking around the neighborhood, you can discover the remains of a stable, barn, ice house and other outbuildings.
The silence of this place encourages unhurried reflection and allows you to feel the breath of history. Time seemed to freeze among the ruins of the stable, barn and ice house... Here you want to slow down, listen to the silence and imagine how the voices, footsteps and laughter sounded in these places many years ago.
