The remnants of Aukštadvaris Manor bear witness to a long and rich history. First mentioned in 1550, the manor changed hands over the centuries, belonging to various noble families, including the Ciachanowieckis, Mickevičiai, Budrevičiai, Marcinkevičiai, Švoinickiai, and finally, the Musnickajai family. The last owner was Zofija Musnickaja (Survilienė).

At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, several families lived on the estate. By 1940, the manor featured a round tower, a terrace, and a complex of buildings, including the main palace, servants' quarters, barns, a granary, and other farm structures. After the war, the manor was taken over by the Ramygala collective farm and gradually fell into ruin.

Today, only fragments of the manor remain—crumbling walls and an abandoned landscape that still echo the grandeur of the past.
