Kurzeme Peasant's Homestead / Kurzemes Zemnieka Sēta

Title

Kurzeme Peasant's Homestead / Kurzemes Zemnieka Sēta

Description

Farmsteads in the area of South Kurzeme are characterised by two courtyards: in the middle – a residential house, opposite of which – a cattle feedlot, between both buildings – a work or dirty yard.
Between the dwelling house and adjacently built barn – a clean yard full of bright flowers and shrubs. Not very fire-prone bathhouse is located at a distance. Several dozen hectares of land belonged to the farmstead.

Dienvidkurzemes sētām raksturīgi divi pagalmi: vidū dzīvojamā māja, tai iepretim lopu laidars, starp abām ēkām darba jeb netīrais pgalms.
Starp dzīvojamo māju un tai līdzās celto klēti – tīrais pagalms ar košuma krūmiem un puķēm. Ugunsnedrošā pirts novietota tālāk. Sētai piederēja vairāki desmiti ha zemes.
