Biksti Manor (Latvian: Bikstu muiža) is an architectural manor house located in the historical region of Zemgale, in Latvia. A two-story building constructed in rectangular shape, the estate comprises a large landscape park with rare species of trees. The manor currently houses the Biksti Elementary School.

History

Built in the middle of the 19th century the manor house appearance is partially linked to the neo-gothic style. Today it visibly displays classical forms. Rebuilding of the structure resulted in the loss of its original appearance and proportions. There are a lot of very valuable interior components in the manor, such as furnaces, the heating systems, wood siding, trim and stair railings, iron balcony railings and pillars.
