Near the manors farmstead a settlement of 4-5 centuries was found. Gojelis is a unique old park with old trees and many karst spouts. It is mentioned as an old pagan sacred place, called Gojus. The park stands out because of the many swallowholes, old trees and biodiversity.
Owners are planing to provide visitors with services that are aimed at the inner world of a person. A chapel will be built on the teritory of the manor and a place for concerts and similar activities, also a centre for spiritual growth. There are also plans to create educational trails inside Gojelis and to engage in biotourism.
