Valtaiķi church is 5 kilometers away from the Kazdanga manor and even if nowadays territorially it is in Kuldīga County, it is very connected with Kazdanga. As soon as on 1792 a stone church was built, from the outside, it was very simple and similar to other churches in Courland. The church of Valtaiķi is outstanding because of its beautiful and detailed stained glass, which was ordered from Italy by baron von Manteifelis in the 20th century after sketches made by Vilhelms Purvītis. There are four stained glass windows around the altar, which tell a story about a warrior’s three manners – bravery, godliness, compassion, and charity. The other stained glass windows depict events from the New Testament. In the bottom part of the windows, there are Manteifeļi and their wife emblem which depict the family’s history.
