History & geography

History

The Aristava manor of duke Algimantas has been known since 1371 when it was mentioned by Hermann von Wartberge. The former manor had been located in Aristavėlė but the last palace building was transferred to the Museum of Lithuanian Folk Life. During the Soviet era, Aristava developed as a central settlement of the "Antanas Sniečkus" kolkhoz. Aristava is home to a library (since 1947), and a culture house (since 1967). Several "Aristava" settlements (including Lukšiakiemis village) were merged into Aristava kolkhoz village on June 3, 1952.
