The first salmonid fish hatcheries were designed and installed in 1880-1885 by the most famous biologist and fishmonger in Lithuania and famous throughout Europe at that time, Mykolas Kazimieras Girdvainis (1841-1924). The Trakai Vokė salmonid fish hatcheries are one of the first objects of this kind in Lithuania.
The location for the Trakai Vokė fish hatchery was not chosen by M.K. Girdvainis by chance. The fish hatchery was built on the land belonging to the Trakai Vokė manor, which belonged to the noble marshal of the Vilnius province, Jonas Tiškevičius, at that time, so it can be assumed that its design and installation were financed by the wealthy owner of the manor. A spring-fed depression was selected for the trout incubator and ponds for their cultivation - all the water needed for the fish is obtained from springs. Orders for trout, which were bred in ponds and became famous throughout the country, were received from Warsaw, Vilnius, and St. Petersburg.
