Marcienas Muiza is located on the shore of Lake Dzirnavu in a forested region of Latvia. The original Marcienas estate (Martzen) was granted to Count Fermor by Empress Elizabeth of Russia in 1753 and later owned by the v. Maydell family. The original manor, built in a neo-Gothic style, was destroyed in 1918 and not rebuilt. Ruins and the historical layout of the estate remain visible.

Gulbern Manor House (Gulbēres muiža) is situated in the picturesque, hilly landscape of Livonia, between the villages of Vecpiebalga (Old Pebalg) and Madona (Modohn). The current manor house was constructed around 1900. Extensive reconstructions were carried out in the second half of the 20th century.

Krimulda is probably the most touristically significant manor house in Livonia (Vidzeme), and perhaps even in the entire Baltic region.
