Located in the village of Dūkšteliai (Old Dūkštas). A state-protected architectural monument of republican significance. 30 km from Ignalina, 3 km northwest of Dūkštas, in Gražutė Regional Park, between two lakes: Parsvėtaitis and Persvėtas. In the west, it approaches the Old Dūkštas Mound. Dūkštas Manor was founded around 1862, covers an area of 1.8 ha. The entire manor ensemble consists of farm buildings, a semi-detached barn, stables, a barn, a wooden stable and the palace itself.
The manor was mentioned in the 16th century as the Giedraičiai estate. The 1st Public Affairs Book of the Lithuanian Metrica contains an entry that on September 29, 1567, the Dūkštas manor belonged to Zofija Devaltauskiene (Deltuvienė), the widow of Stanislovas Devaltauskas. She married Vaitiekus Stabrovskis, the scribe of Užventis and Infanta. Therefore, the manor later passed to the Stabrovskis. In 1573, the manor was bought by the Rudaminas and owned until 1813, when the Beganskias became the owners. The surviving palace was started by the Rudaminas and finished by the Beganskias. Later, the Daugėlas became the owners.
In the first half of the 19th century, the manor was home to a famous artist and professor at Vilnius University, Jonas Rustemas. He died here and was buried in the manor cemetery, in the former churchyard. The manor was often visited by Tomas Zanas, the founder of the Philomath Society, poet and geologist, and his friend Adomas Mickevičius (the park's linden alley is named after him). In 1901, Teresa Daugėlaitė, the daughter of the then owner of the manor, Kazimieras Daugėla, married Tomas Zanas (the younger). The Zanas owned the manor until World War II, and the manor accumulated a rich collection of archaeological finds and antiquities.
In 1939–1944, the Lower Agricultural School was located in the manor.

Tiksliu apsilankymo datą - 2024-09-10:)
Nuostabus dvaras. Puikiai sutvarkytas. Manau, kad šeimininkai dar ne viską įgyvendino, bet tai tik laiko klausimas. Šiandien (2025-09-10) teko lankytis. Nurodytu telefonu pasiskambinus ir sutarus, mums buvo leista apžiūrėti teritoriją. Dėkojame už galimybę apžiūrėti nuostabaus grožio dvarą. Sėkmės Jums
Atvykus išvaro. Neleidžia net apeit.
Kodėl prie įėjimo parašyta privati teritorija?
Neadekvatūs dvaro prižūrėtojai.
Pritariu ir aš dėl nemalonios rusakalbes moters. Dvaro teritorija 10 balų.
Pritariu ankstciau parasytam komentarui. Niekas neleidziau vakscioti po teritorija. Agresyvus zmones buve jame uzsipuole, kad cia privati teritorija.
Tinklapyje rašoma, kad dvaro teritorija atvirai lankoma, tačiau atvykus pasivaikščioti pasitinka nemaloniai nusiteikusi rusakalbė moteris, kuri pakeltu tonu pasako: "nėra čia ką žiūrėti". Nors teritorija graži ir smagu pasivaikščioti aplinkui, tačiau nemalonus personalas gali sugadinti savaitgalio nuotaikas.
