The place is very cool, the locals take care of it as best they can, it's cool. Her story:Grabovsky Manor (Info. The village of Dikushki is located in the Lida district. Although this village is very small and few people live in it, there are many attractions here, and people from all over Belarus come to see these beautiful sights.
The Dikushka estate is located in the south of the Lida district. Another name for this village is Biikushki. It was first mentioned in 1507.
At the end of the 18th century, Rafael Felicianovich Grabovsky acquired the village together with the inhabitants.
The Grabovskys built a stone temple at their own expense, a tavern and a stable appeared. He also built a manor complex with residential buildings and outbuildings. The house is one-storey, rectangular, with a spacious alley leading to the entrance.
In 1920, Grabovsky's estate in the village of Dikushki went to the lonely bachelor Mineyko. He inherited a lot of buildings from Grabovsky, starting with barns and forges and ending with cowsheds and warehouses. He also built a semicircular pediment with columns in front of the entrance to the building. There is a balcony above the colonnade, ordered from Vilna. Mineyko hires locals to work in the barn and do farm work in the stables. In the morning he hands out errands from the balcony, and in the evening he pays. But one day Mineyko left the estate forever.
After the Second World War, the estate building housed the board of directors of the state farm. Later, there was a club that held events, weddings and banquets.
Currently, the building is abandoned, and the house is in ruins, among which the Vilna columns stand out very much. The facades of a residential building, a barn, an igloo and several outbuildings have been preserved.)
Ivan Felicianovich Grabovsky was a landowner, the owner of an estate in the Lida district. He came from a noble family and was the brother of Rafael Felicianovich Grabovsky, a famous Russian military figure. Ivan Grabovsky, unlike his brother, did not become famous for his military service, but was known as a local landowner and public figure.
Owning a manor near Lida made him a significant figure in local society. The estate served not only as an economic center, but also as a place of cultural and social events. Ivan Grabovsky, like other landowners of that time, was probably engaged in the management of his lands and participated in the life of the local nobility, contributing to the development of the region.

We visited this place in August 2024. Despite the number of tourists on this day, the manor, as before, remains abandoned.
The ruins of the Grabovsky estate in Dikushki are located on the northwestern outskirts of this settlement, surrounded by the remains of an ancient park. This estate was founded in the XVIII century, but the surviving structures belong to a later era. They include a barn, a blacksmith shop, etc. Unfortunately, the manor house in the classical style, dating from the beginning of the twentieth century, is in a ruined state. In fact, only the facade, decorated with a semicircular colonnade, has survived from it.
In the 20s of the last century, the Grabovsky estate in the village of Dikushki passed into the possession of a single bachelor Mineyko. From the previous owners, Mineyko inherited many noble buildings, starting with barns and a blacksmith shop, and ending with cowsheds and warehouses. The barn was built back in the 19th century, and the original columns decorating the house were ordered specially from Vilna. Mineyko distributed the work among the locals in the morning, and paid in the evening. This was how the prosperous estate lived and functioned, until one day Mineyko left it forever.

A very beautiful and mysterious place . Everything is overgrown with trees and shrubs inside , and I think it 's for the best : it turns out the house is not alone ) . Outside, apparently, the neighbors are mowing the lawn - and this gives you the opportunity to look at the house from all sides, a very exciting feeling. There is a basement and you can go there if you want , although we were afraid - the girls were alone . I advise everyone to stop by on the way and see this miracle for themselves.
