The Koknese Manor (Alaine Manor) complex consists of the manor manager’s house, the barn with a central red-brick arch (now home to the pub “Rudolfs”), and the former manor laundry house. The Latvian writer Rudolfs Blaumanis lived here from 1885 to 1887 while studying manor management. The buildings are currently used by Virsdaugava Forestry. The garden is open to visitors. The plants have signs next to them with both Latvian and Latin names.
