Stralkovo. The Stralk Estate.

The estate of the hereditary nobleman Dominik Vikentievich Stralko was modest, but, according to historians, very well-maintained and well-groomed. It was built in the neoclassical style and painted white. The entrance group with four columns and a portico stood out especially in the building.

The estate was built by the Stralko family less than 10 years before the outbreak of the First World War, and the family had no chance to develop and expand it. During the war, they had to flee to Poland.

It is known that since the advent of Soviet power, ten families have been accommodated in the building. Each of them occupied a separate room connected to neighboring doors, which created a semblance of an apartment building. The uniqueness of the estate lies in the fact that, unlike those that have been abandoned for decades, the house in the village of Stralkovo has remained alive and full of energy for a long time.

After the war, the estate fell into disrepair, with only heavy doors and an antique fireplace remaining. The remains of the antique furniture were taken out by the Germans, some were looted. Nothing has been preserved from the interior decoration.

The house has been rented out since the early 2000s.

Today, the area around the estate has been cleaned, and the sign "private property" is hanging. Therefore, unfortunately, you can't get inside, but you can walk around.

The manor with stories is located in a beautiful and picturesque place. The building is not in very good condition, and in some places it is even in disrepair. Hopefully, the manor house will be restored in the future and it will not collapse under the burden of indifference.…
