Put yourself in the shoes of a nobleman

Igate Castle was first mentioned in writings in 1455, when Idsel Diderik Fitingoff sold the village and manor to Peter von der Borch. At the end of the 19th century, the ensemble of the Igate manor was supplemented with a manor house designed by Rudolfs Cirkvics for the von Pistolkors family, demonstrating restrained and refined laconicism in the building. The castle has had different managers over time, but in 2022 it was won by Eddy Oš at an auction and it is currently owned by the Oš and Lăči families.

Castle owner, businessman and motor sportsman Edijs Oš says that the purchase of Igate Castle was not a coincidence, because the company's daily place of business is Kuldīga, but for the last two years they have been working purposefully to start work on the Vidzeme side as well, this was one of the factors for such a decision. Regarding the motivation to involve the family in the management of the castle, he says that it is important to give the children the opportunity to develop and improve as well, to gain knowledge about hospitality in the learning process, working both in the castle and in the castle inn. No less important on this path was awareness of the quality of Igate Castle and its possible development in the coming years.

The company has been working in the field of production until now, and it could be said that this is also a big challenge for the new owner. He says the drive lies in always wanting to build, restore, restore places and things, so this castle project is particularly close.

Eddy Osh is a traveler, has been to different countries and gained a wide range of experiences, so his vision of the world allows him to think outside the box and create a new, beautiful place for the implementation of various projects and events. now the goal is to combine the historically important building with a modern breath and offer it to the wider public.
