Geocache Description:

[LT] lobio ieškokite dirbtinėje uoloje (grotoje)

[EN] The cache is hidden in artificial cave (grotto)


[LT] Jūs esate nuostabiame pusiasalyje tarp Galvės ir Skaisčio ežerų, kuriame XIX-XX a. sandūroje Juozapas ir Jadvyga Tiškevičiai įkūrė savo šeimos rezidenciją: istorizmo stiliaus rūmai su įspūdinga, atvirais paviljonais karūnuota terasa. Rūmus su prancūziškais parteriais supa peizažinis parkas. E. F. Andre meistriškai išnaudojo kontrastingą pusiasalio peizažą, dirbtinių uolų kompozicijomis pabrėždamas jo kalvas, o didingą Galvės ir Skaisčio spindesį papildydamas pažemėjimuose ir pelkutėse iškastų tvenkinių veidrodžiais. Rūmai iškentė du Pasaulinius karus, Sovietų sąjungos okupaciją ir didelėmis pastangomis ir jėgomis Trakų istorinio nacionalinio parko direkcija atkūrė Užutrakio dvarą, kuris dabar atviras visuomenei.

[EN] Užutrakis manor ensemble was created in 1897-1902 by count Józef Tyszkiewicz and his wife duchess Jadwiga Swiętopułk-Czetwertyńska. The Tyszkiewicz family owned Užutrakis manor until the beginning of World War II in 1939. When the Soviet Union occupied Lithuania in 1940, Užutrakis manor was nationalized. In 1995 Užutrakis manor was entrusted to Trakai Historical National Park Management. Historicistic style Užutrakis palace was built in 1896-1902 following a project by a famous architect of Warsaw - J. Huss.The author of Užutrakis Park is the French landscape architect and botanist E. F. André. Mixed style Užutrakis Park, formed on a peninsula between Galvė and Skaistis lakes, was planned as a water park. Representational parterres are surrounded by a landscape style park. There are ponds, a comfortable net of pathways, and groups of artificial cliffs that create an impression of a mountain landscape.  Almost in the midway between the palace and the rafter's house a large massif of artificial hills with a grotto was set up.
