Acta Academiae Artium Vilnensis

Abstract

In his research of the planning and functional structure of the Rau- dondvaris Manor, the author makes use of three groups of sources: man- uscript sources (the inventories of the Raudondvaris Manor of 1652, 1661, 1820, 1867, 1876 and 1903 (?)), architectural research of 1959 and historical photographs. The available resources implied the methodology – interpretation of the primary written and visual sources, and the approach of research on art historical sources. With the aim to reveal the reasons and importance of the manor’s interior planning, the reconstruction method is used.
