The oldest records about the manor are from the 18th century, when it was still part of the Vecgulbene manor. In 1806, the manor was acquired by the landlord Carl von Transehe. The most luxurious building in the complex – the monumentally restrained castle was built around 1878 in the English Neo-Gothic style.

The manor was reconstructed at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, liquidating the Gothic forms and adding the features of the Romanesque Neo-Renaissance style. On the facade of the tower there is the coat of arms of the owners von Transehe-Roseneck. The manor includes Neo-Baroque interiors, a parade courtyard with a pond and boulder gate. The wide landscape-style park is decorated with many small architectural forms – Bee House, Devil's Gate, road sign, obelisk, etc. The complex of the farm and residential buildings includes: the manager's house, the servant houses, the stables, the arena, the household building with a cellar, the fireman’s house, locksmith house, the chapel (the present Lutheran church) etc.

The territory of the complex is available for viewing.
