Ervita Erwita

Ervita manor is first recorded in 1663. Its last owner before the 1919 expropriation was Hermann von Wrede. The long house was built in the first half of the 1800s, probably on the basis of older buildings. Its ends are one story high while the center rises to two stories, graced by a four-column portico with a stepped pediment.
