Just sit on a high scree and look at the Nemunas valley. The Big River has been observed by Ilguva Manor for a third century. Looking back at the Nemunas, it greets the sun every morning and counts the stars every night. Around it, you can hear the notes of the famous musicians who have visited this place. Having stopped at the crown of trees surrounding the Nemunas, they fall into rough steps leading towards the coast, accompanying the guests with a unique soundtrack.

This building is a manor house built from larch, the origin of which is spoken by its ornamented sculptures and its brick columns in Classicism style holding a triangular pediment. Although it has a quite simple appearance, the building is a unique example of wooden architecture in Lithuania.

Imagine the inside of the palace. The Manor pulsated the spirit of the noblemen: the broad and branched Grincevičius (Hryncevvicz) family tree was testified by dark ancestor portraits on the walls, the hosts’ library sheltering nearly 1,000 books, and a large music room spoke about their leisure time. Like the said music room, the kitchen also radiated coziness and precise order: the walls were decorated with a collection of copper pans, hung from the largest to the smallest. However, wherever you turn, the attraction centre is the piano and the violin, which is the most expensive instrument belonging to the host, a famous Polish composer and violinist Emil Młynarski).

Married to Ona Grincevičiūtė, the daughter of the famous family Grincevičius, E. Mlynarski, with all the information escorted, moved to Ilguva. Although the composer had to travel a lot, he spent his moments of leisure in the Nemunas Valley. He dedicated his opera "The Summer Night" to the dreamy and warm nights and his "Symphony in F Major" to the early twittering of birds and gurgling brook.

Music also accompanied Beatričė Grincevičiūtė, owner of a wonderful voice, throughout all of her childhood. She admired the duet of her aunt’s husband Emilio and nature, and at nights, she may have already heard the melody of "The Star", which Balys Dvarionas created to her in future. Harmonious tones still accompany the memory of this Lithuanian Nightingale: the annual festival of Classical Music "Beatričė Summers" often visits Ilguva.

Music used to flood the air and descend with the chestnut blossoms that surrounded the manor. The wind blew the aura of sounds behind the Nemunas. Even Petras Cvirka told in his childhood he used to listen as if mesmerised to the harmonious notes coming from the other coast. he was victorious in listening to harmony from the other side of the shore. The immortal melody has been echoing in the Nemunas Valley up till now.
