If elsewhere, the old barons are still honored today, for example, for the establishment of schools for peasant children, etc., then the barons of the Nica manor had only entertainment in mind. So to speak - hunt, feast and repeat. In the meantime, local young women - in the full folk costume of Nica, in the dress of honor - worked in the manor as maids, and the farmers, who could not fulfill their orders or opened their mouths to the vagrants supervising the work, were beaten with sledgehammers on Bendes hill, in the park of Nica.
During a walk with a local guide, you will learn about the coarse bread slippers of Napoleon's soldiers, as well as why the baroness's pets were pugs and dachshunds, etc. Route: dairy, granary, pharmacy, post station, Nica Park, Bendes Kalniņš, post office and Nica Manor (up to 1 h, walk length up to 1 km).
