Geocache Description:


LAT: slēpnis ir paslēpts par godu parka sarga namiņam, kas Iecavu ir sargājis gandrīz 120 gadus.

Pats pievilcīgākais Iecavas arhitektoniskais rotājums mūsdienās tomēr ir 3 parka sarga namiņi, kas skatāmi dažādās parka pusēs un dažādās saglabāšanās pakāpēs. Vienu no tiem - nelielu sarkanu ķieģeļu ēku ar stāvu jumtgali blakus tiltam pār Iecavas upīti - redz ikviens, kas brauc cauri Iecavai. Šodien dubļiem notraipīta, ar nepiemērotu azbestšīfera jumtu tā trauksmainās šosejas malā pavīd tikai īsu mirkli, turpretī kādreiz katram lēni un ar apdomu ejošam vai braucošam ceļiniekam tas pavērās kā īsts pasaku namiņš. Kaut kas no angļu gotikas - rūpīgs sarkano ķieģeļu mūrējums, granīta kvaderi stūros, logi ar sīku rombveida stiklojumu svina rāmjos, durvis ar skaistiem vīru kalumiem. Tādu.to rāda 1904. gada fotogrāfija, kas tapusi , domājams, īsi pēc uzbūvēšanas: precīzs celšanas gads nav zināms. Šī namiņa sargs uzraudzīja ieeju muižas parkā gar Iecavas upes labo krastu, bet otrs namiņš atradās uz parka ceļa, upītes pretējā krastā. Arī tas ir nemazāk bēdīgā stāvoklī - nomainīts jumts, logi, skurstenis, izlauzta daļa no kokgriezumiem jumtgalē. Blakus saglabājies vecais tiltiņš pār nelielo Iecavas upes pieteku Ģedulīti, kas darināts tikpat rūpīgā mūrējuma tehnikā, ar gludi kaltiem granīta kvaderiem, tikai ķieģeļu vietā lietoti laukakmeņi.
Labākā stāvoklī ir trešais sarga namiņš (pie kura atrodas slēpnis), kas atrodas jau ārpus muižas parka, garas ozolu alejas galā, pie ceļa, kas ved uz kādreizējo Dorotejas pusmuižu. Senāk šajā vietā kuplojās mežs, un senās fotogrāfijās redzamā situācija iztēlē grūti savienojama ar pašreizējo izskatu.

 

ENG: cache is hidden in honor of guard huts, while guarding the Iecava almost 120 years.

 The most attractive Iecavas architectural decoration nowadays but there are 3 park guard houses, which read in various park sides and in different conservation degrees. One of the small red-brick building with a steep gable next to the bridge over the river Iecavas - see anyone passing through Iecava. Today contaminated mud with inappropriate bedpan the roof turbulent highway dealt with often only briefly, while every once slowly and prudently attending or ride the traveler, it looked like a real fairy house. Something of the English Gothic style - diligent red brick masonry, granite kvaderi corners, windows with small diamond-shaped glazing lead frames, doors with beautiful forgings. Of the show in 1904. Photography of the year, which is the result of thought, shortly after construction: the exact year of building is unknown. This hut caretaker monitored entrance Manor Park Iecavas along the right bank of the river, and the second house was located on a park road, river, on the opposite bank. Also, it is no less a sorry state - rebuilt roof, windows, chimney, broken off part of the carved gable. Near the remains of the old bridge Iecavas small tributary Ģedulīti that as carefully fashioned masonry technique to smooth Granite kvaderiem only used brick instead of boulders. The best position is the third guard house (where is a cache), which is already out of Manor Park, a long oak alleys all, on the road leading to the former Dorothea manor house. In the past, this place were forest, and old photos of imagination, the situation is difficult to reconcile with the current look.
