This residential castle was built by Kryszpin Kirszensztein at the end of the 16th century. It is a Renaissance building that has been constantly remodeled by different owners. The castle got its current appearance in the middle of the 19th century under the leadership of Sofia von Pirch-Kaisarova. The castle is surrounded by an old, legendary park.
Raudonė is first mentioned in the 16th century as the estate of the Polish King Sigismund II Augustus. He sold the property around 1580 to the Prussian timber merchant Hieronymus Krispin-Kirschenstein. He and his son built the first palace in the Renaissance style.
The palace owes its present appearance primarily to the Neo-Gothic reconstructions carried out between 1861 and 1877 under the direction of Count Zubov's daughter, Sofia Kaissarowa. The last noble owners were the granddaughter Sofia Waxell and her Portuguese husband José Carlos de Faria e Castro.
